ABSTRACT

At present, performing a liver biopsy to establish the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma in cirrhotic patients has a less decisive role. This has to do many factors such as the development of diagnostic techniques such as computerized axial tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, the risk of complications during and after the biopsy and the low utility for the taking of therapeutic behaviors.
