Failure of hepatocellular carcinoma surveillance: inadequate echogenic window and macronodular parenchyma as potential culprits
Purpose The purpose of this study was to examine the associations between ultrasonography (US) quality and clinical outcomes in patients undergoing surveillance for hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods Between 2008 and 2013, 155 patients were diagnosed with liver cancer during regular surveillance by p...
