🎓Key Contributions 主要贡献

HCC Surveillance and Biomarkers

Developed and validated the GALAD score combining AFP, AFP-L3, and PIVKA-II for early HCC detection, showing superior sensitivity over ultrasound-only surveillance in cirrhosis.

Real-World HCC Outcomes

Led population-level studies demonstrating gaps in HCC surveillance adherence and their impact on stage at diagnosis and survival, informing public health interventions.
