[Ultrasound diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma]
Abstract:
Nowadays, ultrasound has been widely used in clinical practice of gastroenterology. A recently developed ultrasound apparatus with a higher resolution of image and less artifacts makes it possible to find out a small HCC sized about 1.0 cm. Moreover, a new convex type of probe with a wide field of view enables us to detect a small HCC locating in the upper part of the right lobe which has been done with difficulty before. Early diagnosis of HCC by detecting a small mass lesion will be carried out reliably by a modern ultrasound modality.

Abdominal ultrasonography, commonly known as abdominal ultrasound, is a vital, non-invasive medical imaging technique widely used in healthcare.
Procedure:
This diagnostic tool allows the clinician to visually inspect internal structures within the abdomen, including vital organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen.
The abdominal ultrasound process begins with applying a special gel to the patient's skin over the abdomen. This gel enhances the...
