Postloco-Regional Therapy Imaging of the Liver
Locoregional therapies play an increasingly important role in the management of liver tumors. Percutaneous image-guided tumor ablations are some of the most commonly performed locoregional therapies aimed at liver tumors. Tumor ablation techniques include radiofrequency ablation (RFA), microwave ablation (MWA), cryoablation, and irreversible electroporation (IRE). With any of the locoregional therapies, assessment of pretreatment and posttreatment changes is critical in assessing treatment response.
