Workup[edit] Upon discovery of a liver tumor, the main issue in the workup is to determine whether the tumor is benign or malignant. Many imaging modalities are used to aid in the diagnosis of malignant liver tumors. [en.wikipedia.org]

A careful review of clinical workup and presentation is required to form a clinically relevant differential diagnosis in this setting. [ijpmonline.org]

The lack of canalicular staining for p-CEA or CD10 does not necessarily exclude a poorly differentiated HCC; it actually implicates additional immunostaining workup and correlation with clinical, radiological, and laboratory findings. [journals.sagepub.com]

Doctors want to learn whether the new treatment is safe, effective, and possibly better than the standard treatment. Clinical trials can test a new drug, a new combination of standard treatments, or new doses of standard drugs or other treatments. [cancer.net]

When clinical trials show that a new treatment is better than the standard treatment, the new treatment may become the standard treatment. Patients may want to think about taking part in a clinical trial. [cancer.gov]
