Figure 4.9 Sonication monitoring using real-time ultrasonography (US) imaging obtained in patient with hepatocellular carcinoma. (A) Before high-intensity
focused ultrasound (HIFU). (B) Hyperechoic changes were detected in the treated lesion after HIFU. Contrast-enhanced US imaging before (C) and just after HIFU (D). The blood flow disappeared after HIFU. Assessment of coagulation using a computed tomography scan. (E) Before HIFU, tumor enhancement (white arrows) was detected during the arterial phase and the low-density area posterior to the tumor was a liver cyst. The arterial phase image at 1 week after HIFU treatment (F) shows the tumor enhancement has disappeared (arrows). (Reprinted with permission from Fukuda H, Ito R, Ohto M, et al.
