Evaluating the echogenicity of ethyl cellulose-ethanol gel for tracking biodistribution during liver ablation

Evaluating the echogenicity of ethyl cellulose-ethanol gel for tracking biodistribution during liver ablation

Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third most common cause of cancer deaths worldwide. While surgery and liver transplantation are curative treatments for HCC, many tumors are unresectable due to co-morbidities or advanced stage.
