COMMENTS
The overall hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) screening result for an at-risk patie
nt based on lab and clinical data, such as the patient's biological sex and mult
iple biomarkers. The biomarkers may include alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels and t
he detection of targeted methylated cell-free DNA (cfDNA) associated with HCC. E
xamples of methylation targets include the HOXA1 and TSPYL5 gene. A positive tes
t result suggests the presence of HCC, and clinical correlation is suggested.  A
 negative test result indicates a lower likelihood of the presence of HCC. [PMID
