A member asked:
Can you be tested for liver cancer while jaundiced?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: However, no blood test is especially sensitive, or fully specific, even for common hepatocellular carcinoma. Bilirubin in the blood (jaundice) does not interfere with assays or imaging studies.
