Methodical innovations
Diagnostic and therapy of hepatocellular carcinoma according to the official German interdisciplinary guidelines.
Performance
The formulation of the German S3 guidelines on diagnosis and therapy of hepatocellular carcinoma was performed under special consideration of quality indicators and standardized quality improvement methods.
