hepatobiliary oncology

Hepatobiliary oncology is the medical field focused on diagnosing and treating cancers of the liver, gallbladder, and bile ducts. These organs are vital for digestion and waste removal, and tumors here can be challenging to treat due to their location and complexity. Treatment options may include surgery, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or minimally invasive procedures. Early detection and specialized care are important for better outcomes. This field combines expertise in liver and biliary diseases with cancer management to provide comprehensive care for affected patients.
