In patients with a higher suspicion of HCC, such as small or subtle rising of serum enzymes levels, the best method of diagnosis involves a CT scan of the abdomen, but only at high cost. The aim of this study was to increase the ability of the physician to early detect HCC, using a probabilistic neural network-based approach, in order to save time and hospital resources.}, journal = {International Journal of Medical and Health Sciences}, volume = {2}, number = {5}, year = {2008}, pages = {158 - 161}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/4523}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/17}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 17, 2008}, }
