This is an app to calculate total tumour volume (TTV) of hepatocellular carcinoma to see if patients meet criteria for liver transplantation. The user would enter the diameters (in cm) for each of the tumour. The user would also enter the AFP level in ng/ml. The app calculates the TTV in cm3. The app also determines whether the tumours are within the HCC TTV, Milan, and UCSF criteria.App developed by Kris P.
