Dynamic contrast-enhanced computed tomography in the treatment evaluation of patients with colorectal liver metastases treated with ablation: a feasibility study.

Conclusion In this exploratory feasibility study, we were not able to differentiate between the two groups (recurrence/no recurrence) using the dynamic parameters derived from the standardized circumferential VOI. In time, the method may have potential to evaluate the treatment site following ablation in an objective and standardized manner. Currently, the method needs further refinement before clinical implementation. PMID: 30335477 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
