Impact of PIVKA-II in diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma

Gloved hand holds a blood collection tube filled with blood. The tube has a label with the words "PIVKA-II".

This study was designed to investigate the potential role of PIVKA-II as a diagnostic, non-invasive marker for HCC at its early stages and to assess its sensitivity and specificity as compared with the usual recommended marker AFP.
