Early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma: the high accuracy of real-time contrast-enhanced ultrasonography in the assessment of response to percutaneous treatment.
European Radiology 2007 December
Image-guided tumor ablation has a major role in the therapeutic management of hepatocellular carcinoma and the assessment of the efficacy of percutaneous ablation is crucial for the management of cirrhotic patients. Contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) is extremely sensitive in detecting the intratumoral microvasculature in real time, with the same sensitivity in the detection of residual HCC as CT. CEUS has some advantages. It can be used before and during the ablative procedure as a guide for percutaneous needle placement. Moreover, CEUS can be performed almost immediately after ablation to determine whether the tumor has been completely ablated or needs additional treatment that can be performed in the same session, improving the cost-effectiveness of the treatment.
