We used this approach to identify new biomarkers of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the sera of patients with cirrhosis."
"Sera from 82 patients with cirrhosis, either without (n=38) or with (n=44) HCC, were analyzed by SELDI-TOF MS, and the results of the two groups were compared," V. Paradis and colleagues, Beaujon Hospital, Anatomical...
