Assoc. Prof. Narong Khuntikeo is the director and initiator of the Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) Research Institute (CARI) and The Cholangiocarcinoma Screening and Care Program (CASCAP) at Khon Kaen University, Thailand. The institute and program aim to reduce the mortality caused by CCA by reducing the incidence of infection with the liver fluke Opisthorchis viverrini, the main risk factor for developing CCA, as well as developing new clinical approaches to early disease diagnosis, surgery and chemotherapy. To date over 600,000 at-risk individuals have been screened ba CASCAP to detect early stage disease.Prof. Khuntikeo received his MD at the Faculty of Medicine in Khon Kaen in 1984 and received a fellowship in Hepato-Pancreatic Biliary Surgery and Liver Transplantation at the Princess Alexandra Hospital, Brisbane in 1994. He is the recipient of numerous awards and extensive funding for his work on combatting CCA.Ross H Andrews and Trevor N Petney have done extensive work on O. viverrini including its systematics, genetic variability, host choice and transmission dynamics. Both are senior advisors at the Cholangiocarcinoma Research Institute, Khon Kaen University. Shahid A Khan is an internationally renowned liver specialist in biliary cancer.
