Cancers of the liver and bile ducts often require coordination among oncology, surgery, and interventional specialists. Our oncologists manage the systemic piece — including modern targeted and immune therapies — within that team.
How we approach it
Advanced liver and bile duct cancers are increasingly treated with targeted drugs and immunotherapy, sometimes matched to tumor genetics
Treatment may involve surgery, liver-directed procedures, and medical therapy — we keep them aligned
We tailor treatment to your liver function, which matters as much as the cancer itself
What the workup looks like
Multiphase CT or MRI can often characterize liver and bile duct tumors — sometimes without a biopsy.
Because underlying liver function shapes what treatment is safe, we evaluate it carefully alongside the tumor itself.
Surgery, liver-directed therapies, and systemic treatment are weighed together, often with your liver specialists.
Common questions
Are liver and bile duct cancers treated the same way?
Does underlying liver disease affect treatment?
Can these be treated without surgery?
Is genetic testing of the tumor useful?
