Treatment for liver cancer depends on the type that you have, and your age, medical history and treatment preferences.

Options include:

• Surgery – which may involve removing part of the liver or a liver transplant
• Radiation therapy – uses high-energy particles to target and destroy cancer cells
• Chemotherapy – involves the use of anti-cancer drugs which are taken orally (by mouth) or injected into the body
• Targeted therapies – focuses specifically on treating the patients’ type of cancer, with a focus on targeting cancer cells, and not healthy cells
