摘要

It is an era of diagnostic and interventional ultrasound (US).Various new techniques such as three-dimensional US(3D US),interventional US,and contrastenhanced US(CEUS)have been introduced into clinical practice.Dr.Xu and his colleagues have taken advantage of these techniques and carried out a series of relevant studies.Their use of 3D US in the liver,gallbladder,liver tumor volumetry,guidance for ablation,and 3D CEUS has widened the application of 3D US in the clinic.They found that prognosis in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)after thermal ablation with curative intent was determined by treatment response to ablation,pretreatment serum AFP,and liver function reserve.Tumor response to treatment was the most predictive factor for long-term survival.They compared the use of percutaneous microwave ablation and radiofrequency ablation for the treatment of HCC and found that both are effective methods in treating HCCs.The local tumor control,complications related to treatment, and long-term survival were equivalent for the two modalities.They first compared the enhancement patterns of HCC and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma(ICC)and proposed the diagnostic clues for ICC,liver angiomyolipoma(AML),gallbladder cancer,renal carcinoma,and renal AML,which have greatly enhanced the role ofCEUS in the clinic.They also evaluated the diagnostic performance of CEUS in characterizing complex cystic focal liver lesions and the agreement between two investigators with different experience levels;and found that CEUS is especially useful for the young investigator.They assessed the effect of anti-angiogenic gene therapy for HCC treated by microbubble-enhanced US exposure and concluded that gene therapy mediated by US exposure enhanced by a microbubble contrast agent may become a new treatment option for HCC.
