Abstract: Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) imposes a growing disease burden in Asia, a region that already shoulders more than 70% of the global load. Analysis of epidemiological data shows regional changes in disease incidence and etiological factors. This chapter examines the epidemiology of HCC in Asia in 4 parts - the burden of disease and its distribution, changing trends in the etiology, the reliability of data and future directions for research and public health initiatives. © 2012 by Nova Science Publishers, Inc.
