CT perfusion for response evaluation after interventional ablation of hepatocellular carcinoma: a prospective study
Abstract Background Computed tomography (CT) perfusion was found to be useful in assessing treatment response in a variety of cancers through the evaluation in the arterial perfusion changes. We investigated the performance of CT perfusion parameters for assessment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)...
