Evaluation and Surgical Management of Hepatocellular Carcinoma

TL;DR: The main diagnostic methods used for HCC staging, together with the treatment possibilities, are underline, highlighting the importance of surgical management, conventional or minimally invasive.

Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound (CEUS) for Echographic Detection of Hepato Cellular Carcinoma in Cirrhotic Patients Previously Treated with Multiple Techniques: Comparison of Conventional US, Spiral CT and 3-Dimensional CEUS with Navigator Technique (3DNav CEUS).

Francesco Giangregorio
- 30 Mar 2011 - 
TL;DR: 3-DNav CEUS is significantly better than US and almost similar to spiral CT for detection of new HCC, and showed the presence of lesions even in the cases not detected with spiral CT.

Campaign to End Fistula with special focus on Ethiopia – A walk to beautiful Is there a role for ultrasound?

TL;DR: Being a young girl or an adolescent woman living in rural areas of contemporary Africa may very likely mean exposure to several forms of negative discrimination that inevitably decreases odds for leading a prosperous and happy life.

Current Role of Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound in the Diagnosis ofHepatocellular Carcinoma

TL;DR: Contrastenhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is a well-known, non-invasive technique that can be used to diagnose hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and can be performed in real time and under complete control of the ultrasound operator.

New Guidelines to Evaluate the Response to Treatment in Solid Tumors

TL;DR: A model by which a combined assessment of all existing lesions, characterized by target lesions and nontarget lesions, is used to extrapolate an overall response to treatment is proposed, which is largely validated by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Group and integrated into the present guidelines.

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).

Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Radio-frequency Ablation of Medium and Large Lesions

TL;DR: RF ablation appears to be an effective, safe, and relatively simple procedure for the treatment of medium and large HCCs in patients with cirrhosis or chronic hepatitis.

Percutaneous RF interstitial thermal ablation in the treatment of hepatic cancer.

TL;DR: RF interstitial thermal ablation is a useful percutaneous treatment for hepatic cancer and in the patients treated for metastatic nodules, posttreatment imaging studies showed necrosis that varied from 80% to 100% in all cases.

Pulse inversion Doppler: a new method for detecting nonlinear echoes from microbubble contrast agents

TL;DR: In vitro measurements comparing flowing agent and cellulose particles suggest that pulse inversion Doppler can provide 3 to 10 dB more agent to tissue contrast than harmonic imaging with similar pulses, and in vitro measurements suggest that broadband pulse inverts can provide up to 16 dB more contrast than broadband conventional Dopplers.
