Fusion imaging-guided radiofrequency ablation for residual hepatocellular carcinoma invisible on ultrasound after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization

CONCLUSIONS: CEUS-CECT/CEMRI fusion imaging for guiding RFA enables an efficient and useful therapy of inconspicuous HCC lesions after TACE. The novel solution prolongs the disease-free survival time and reduces the long-term local recurrence of residual lesions treated when using virtual-navigation (VN)-guided RFA.PMID:34296656 | DOI:10.1080/02656736.2021.1943545
