Abstract

Abstract:

The prevalence of liver cancer has increased year by year. Since the timing of diagnosis and treatment has a significant impact on the prognosis of patients, more and more doctors and patients have paid attention to the early diagnosis and treatment of this malignancy. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound plays an important role in early diagnosis, treatment, and evaluation of curative effect after ablation in patients with liver cancer. This article systematically reviews the clinical application of contrast-enhanced ultrasound in the diagnosis and ablation treatment of early liver cancer.

Key words: Liver neoplasm, Contrast-enhance ultrasound, Diagnosis, Ablation
