Core Tip

Core Tip: Clinical data of patients with primary liver cancer (PLC) treated with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) were retrospectively analyzed to evaluate the changes in alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and γ-glutamyltransferase (GGT) levels before and after treatment. The subjects of this study were PLC patients undergoing RFA. By collecting ALP and GGT detection results at different time points before and after treatment, the dynamic trend and clinical significance of these indicators were analyzed.
