Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains a leading cause of cancer‐related mortality, with a disproportionate impact on racial/ethnic minority groups. However, state‐level variation in racial/ethnic disparities and temporal trends of HCC incidence remain unknown. Therefore, we aimed to characterize (1) state‐level racial/ethnic disparity in HCC incidence, (2) state‐level temporal changes in HCC incidence, and (3) the ecological correlation between HCC incidence and obesity/physical activity levels in the USA.
