Welcome to Episode 23 of The Oncology Podcast's Experts On Point series, brought to you by The Oncology Network. 

Liver cancer is currently the seventh deadliest cancer in Australia. Liver cancer mortality rates in Australia continue to grow faster than any other cancer. Incidence rates 3 times higher among men than women and the survival rate is just over 20 per cent.

Our Host Rachael Babin chats to Associate Professor Eleonora Feletto about efforts to transform Liver Cancer Control in Australia.  

Eleonora leads the Gastrointestinal Cancers Policy and Evaluation Stream at the Daffodil Centre. Her current work focuses on the prevention and early detection of colorectal and liver cancer in Australia and overseas.

We hope you enjoy listening.
