0:00 Introduction

0:45 What are some of the usual tests for colorectal cancer?
We routinely perform CT scans and PET scans to detect the stage of colon or rectal cancer.
These are the primary tests that determine if cancer has progressed to the liver or not.

1:10 How can doctors diagnose colorectal cancer that has progressed to the liver?
Liver MRI is more sensitive than CT scans for detecting liver metastasis, which occurs when colon or rectal cancer spreads to the liver.

1:45 How does colorectal cancer affect the liver?
When the liver is injured by chemotherapy, hepatitis, or drinking, colorectal cancer spreads to the liver, which can be simply diagnosed with an MRI.

2:20 Is a biopsy performed in liver cancer?
When we run CT scan, PET scan, and MRI for liver cancer diagnosis and we can't acquire a clear diagnosis, we consider doing a biopsy.
