LOINC Code


LOINC code96450-2
nameHepatotocellular carcinoma risk [Score] GALAD
descriptionThe GALAD score provides the probability of a patient having hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It is calculated based on gender, age, alpha-fetoprotein (AFP)-L3, AFP, and des-gamma-carboxy prothrombin [DCP], and higher GALAD model scores correlate with increased risk of HCC. The GALAD model is reported to be more accurate in diagnosing HCC compared to the use of the individual markers.

timePt  =  Point in time:  To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements.
system^Patient
scaleQn  =  Quantitative:  The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range. The test result value may optionally contain a relational operator from the set {<=, <, >, >=}. Valid values for a quantitative test are of the form "7", "-7", "7.4", "-7.4", "7.8912", "0.125", "<10", "<10.15", ">12000", 1-10, 1:256
