Resumen

CABAS-SANCHEZ, Javier. Tamizaje by hepatocarcinoma and strategy of pursuit in carriers of the virus of hepatitis B. Acta méd. costarric [online]. 2008, vol.50, suppl.3, pp.73-76. ISSN 0001-6002.

The use of both abdominal ultrasound and alphafetoprotein is considered as one of the most useful and accepted screening tests to follow up chronic HBV carriers. High risk patients (males, cirrhotic with hepatoma family history, older than 45 years of age) and those low-risks must be separated to establish follow up time wich shold be every 3 months for the former and every 6 months for the latter. If any abnormal image is detected, the use of three dimensional tomography and magnetic resonance complement image definition to establish a therapeutic conduct.

Palabras clave : tamizaje; hepatocarcinoma; alphafetoprotein; abdominal ultrasound.
