Journal ArticleDOI

Small Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Treatment with Radio-frequency Ablation versus Ethanol Injection

TL;DR: RF ablation results in a higher rate of complete necrosis and requires fewer treatment sessions than percutaneous ethanol injection, however, the complication rate is higher with RF ablation than with percutaneously ethanol injection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Guidelines and good clinical practice recommendations for Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound (CEUS) in the liver - update 2012: A WFUMB-EFSUMB initiative in cooperation with representatives of AFSUMB, AIUM, ASUM, FLAUS and ICUS.

TL;DR: These liver CEUS guidelines and recommendations are intended to create standard protocols for the use and administration of UCA in liver applications on an international basis and improve the management of patients worldwide.
Journal ArticleDOI

Percutaneous radio-frequency ablation of hepatic metastases from colorectal cancer: long-term results in 117 patients.

TL;DR: RF ablation is an effective method to treat hepatic metastases from colorectal carcinoma and Frequency and time to local recurrence were related to lesion size (P < or =.001).
