Zusammenfassung

Aim: According to International Guidelines, typical features of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) at imaging techniques are considered hyper-enhancement in arterial phase, iso/hypo-enhancement in portal-venous phase and hypo-enhancement in late phase. Aim of this study was to investigate the role of portal-late phase at contrast-enhanced ultrasound CEUS of small nodules (10–30mm) in cirrhosis. Material and methods: 81 cirrhotic patients (66M; mean age 65.3y; 72 viral, 7 alcoholic, 2 cryptogenetic) with 99 newly developed small nodules (10–30mm) were included. CEUS was performed using dedicated technology (CnTI-Esao…
