- Knowing the effect of antiviral treatment on the natural history of HCC
- Understanding the place of curative treatments (transplantation, resection and ablation) in management of early HCC
- Describing how radiology could help for the diagnosis and the assessment of the radiological response of HCC
- Defining the role of pathology in HCC management
