Liver cancer is the eight most deadly type of the disease in the UK, with around 5,800 people sadly losing their lives to it each year.
Getting diagnosed early sometimes means that the cancer can be treated, either through surgery or a liver transplant. The two types of liver cancer include primary, where it starts off in the liver straight away, or secondary - where it appears elsewhere in the body and spreads to the liver.
But it's often the case that it's diagnosed too late and can't be completely destroyed by treatment, according to NHS Inform.
