Liver Tumor Clinic
The Multidisciplinary Liver Tumor Clinic, directed by Dr. Jorge Marrero, is held every Friday afternoon at the Cancer Center. The Clinic cares for patients with hepatic malignancies – primary or metastatic. The clinic includes hepatobiliary surgeons, hepatologists, medical and radiation oncologists, and interventional radiologists. This unique program combines the expertise of various departments with an excellent liver transplant program and our NIH designated Comprehensive Cancer Center.
Mission
Our mission is to offer timely, innovative, and compassionate care to patients affected by these liver tumors. As part of this mission, we aim to serve as a center of excellence for the development of new screening techniques, new treatments, and new understanding of the development of liver cancers.
Multidisciplinary Liver Tumor Board
Following an evaluation, each patient is reviewed by our Multidisciplinary Liver Tumor Board with careful consideration of all treatment options. A clear treatment plan is developed and discussed with every patient and implemented through the Clinic.
