Overview

Chest x-ray may be helpful in the identification of certain complications that can occur as a result of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and in the detection of HCC metastasis to the lungs or to detect pleural effusion.

Key Chest X-Ray Findings in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Chest x-ray (CXR) has a limited role in the diagnosis and management of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, however chest x-ray might be helpful in the detection of HCC metastasis to the lungs or to detect pleural effusion.[1][2][3][4]
