Abstract: Hepatocellular carcinoma, also called hepatoma, most
commonly appears in a patient with chronic viral hepatitis. In
patients with a higher suspicion of HCC, such as small or subtle
rising of serum enzymes levels, the best method of diagnosis
involves a CT scan of the abdomen, but only at high cost. The aim of
this study was to increase the ability of the physician to early detect
HCC, using a probabilistic neural network-based approach, in order
to save time and hospital resources.
