    Abstract: Abstract. The last decades have known continuous development of therapeutic strategies in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Unfortunately the disease it still not diagnosed until it is already at an intermediate or even an advanced disease. In these circumstances transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is considered an effective treatment for HCC. The most important independent prognostic factor of both disease free survival and overall survival is the presence of complete necrosis. Therefore, treatment outcomes are dictated by the proper use of radiological imaging. Current guidelines recommend contrast enhanced computer tomography (CECT) as the standard imaging technique for evaluating the therapeutic response in patients with HCC after TACE. One of the most important disadvantage of CECT is the overestimation of tumor response. As an attempt to overcome this limitation contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) has gained particular attention as an imaging modality in HCC patients after TACE. Of all available imaging modalities, CEUS performs better in the early and very early assessment of TACE especially after lipiodol TACE. As any other imaging techniques CEUS has disadvantages especially in hypovascular tumors or in cases of tumor multiplicity. Not far from now the current limitations of CEUS will be overcome by the new CEUS techniques that are already tested in clinical practice such as dynamic CEUS with quantification, three-dimensional CEUS or fusion techniques.

    Microwave ablation in the treatment of liver tumors. A better tool or simply more power?

    Abstract: It has been a long time since tumor ablation was first tested in patients with liver cancer, especially hepatocellular carcinoma. Since than it has become a first line treatment modality for hepatocellular carcinoma. Over the years, the indications of thermal ablation have expanded to colorectal cancer liver metastases and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma as well. Together with the new indication for ablation, new ablation devices have been developed as well. Among them microwave ablation shows potential in replacing radiofrequency ablation as the preferred method of thermal ablation in liver cancer. The debate whether radiofrequency or microwave ablation should be the preferred method of treatment in patients with liver cancer remains open. The main purpose of this review is to offer some answers to the question: Microwave ablation in liver tumors: a better tool or simply more power? Various clinical scenarios will be analyzed including small, medium, and intermediate size hepatocellular carcinoma, colorectal cancer liver metastases and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. Furthermore, the advantages, limitations, and technical considerations of MWA treatment will be provided also.

    Abstract: The main imagistic method for characterization of renal lesions is contrast enhanced computed tomography (CECT). Disadvantages of CECT are a contrast-induced nephropathy in patients with renal impairment, allergic reactions and high costs. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) evaluation of hepatic and non-hepatic lesions is a relatively new, but increasingly utilised, diagnostic method. In 2011 the European Federation of Societies of Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology (EFSUMB) updated the Guidelines and Recommendations on the Clinical Practice of CEUS and included in the recommendation the renal pathology. However, there are several possible new indications that have not been discussed (pyelocaliceal masses and renal vein thrombosis) and several issues that remain controversial such as the differentiation of benign and malignant tumours or the differentiation of lymphoma and metastasis. This study aims to review literature data, as well as reveal the latest findings in the field of renal CEUS.
