Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) - Screening and Doagnosis

Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) is the most common type of liver cancer. Luckily, it can be treated if caught at an early stage. Unfortunately, HCC is not pften caught early enough.
In this video, I discuss who is at risk of HCC, what the most common risk factor is for HCC (Cirrhosis), what are additional risk factors (Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C), who should be screened for Hepatocellular Carcinoma, at what age should people be screened, and how should people be screened for HCC. Additionally, I discuss when HCC screening should stop.

If you're trying to advertise a product, the label should at the very least be turned where the reader or viewer can see it without having to try to reverse it in their head. It's an advertising trick. I'm surprised did the labels are backwards in this video.
