Contrast-enhanced ultrasound to ultrasound fusion during microwave ablation: feasibility study in a perfused porcine liver model
Monsky, Wayne; Keravnou, Christina; Averkiou, Michalakis (2019)To obtain a complete response with thermal ablation, the margin and entire tumor volume must be treated. Real-time ultrasound visualization is limited during ablation due to gas production. This study assesses the feasibility ...

Differentiation of Vascular Characteristics Using Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound Imaging
Butler, Mairead; Perperidis, Antonios; Zahra, Jean-Luc Matteo; Silva, Nadia; Averkiou, Michalakis; Duncan, W. Colin; McNeilly, Alan; Sboros, Vassilis (2019)Ultrasound contrast imaging has been used to assess tumour growth and regression by assessing the flow through the macro- and micro-vasculature. Our aim was to differentiate the blood kinetics of vessels such as veins, ...
