Three-dimensional contrast-enhanced ultrasound fusion imaging predicts local tumor progression by evaluating ablative margin of radiofrequency ablation for hepatocellular carcinoma: a preliminary report.
CONCLUSIONS: 3DCEUS fusion enables AM evaluation for HCC immediately after RFA with comparable accuracy to CT fusion. AM <5 mm evaluated by 3DCEUS fusion has high predictive value for LTP.
