3. Ultrasound: This is an imaging procedure. In this procedure, sound waves are used to produce an image of organs inside the body. Disorders and conditions of the liver, bile, duct, gallbladder, and pancreas are detected using these images.
4. MRI: This is an imaging procedure. In this procedure, a magnetic field is used to produce images of the soft tissues of the body and the organs. Diseases of the liver, bile duct, gallbladder, and pancreas; and lesions of the liver are diagnosed using these images.

1. Liver Resection-A portion of the liver is removed. Laparoscopic liver resection leads to shorter hospital stays and quicker recovery.
2. Liver tumor ablation– Ablation can be used in patients with a few small tumors and when surgery is not a good choice. Ablation is a treatment that kills liver tumors without removing them.
3. Bile duct resection-A portion of the bile duct is removed to treat bile duct cancer. A bile duct is a tube-like system that brings bile to the small intestine. Bile is a chemical utilized in digestion.
4. Bile duct repair-The open end of the hurt main bile duct is sutured closed with a nonabsorbable suture. A side-to-side anastomosis is then conducted starting with the posterior wall in an interrupted or running fashion using a 4-0 or 5-0 monofilament absorbable suture.
5. Complex gallbladder resection-A cholecystectomy is a surgical technique to remove your gallbladder, a pear-shaped organ that sits just below your liver on the upper right side of your abdomen. Your gallbladder gathers and stores bile, a digestive fluid produced in your liver.
6. Chemoembolization– Chemotherapy is provided directly to the tumor through a catheter. This method also cuts off the flow of blood and nutrients to the tumor and traps the chemotherapy drugs at the site to make them more effective.
7. Whipple Procedure– This surgery also called a pancreaticoduodenectomy which treats cancer of the pancreas. In this procedure, part or all of the pancreas also part of the stomach, small intestine, lymph nodes near the pancreas, gallbladder, and part of the bile duct are removed.
8. Cholecystectomy-This is the removal of the gallbladder. It is usually done with laparoscopy, through a very small incision.
9. Gallstone Surgery-We performs open as well as laparoscopic gallstone surgery.
10. Therasphere- In this treatment radiation is delivered through a catheter straight to the blood supply of the tumor. Therasphere is a treatment for inoperable liver cancer.
