The authors have previously demonstrated the ability of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) to extracorporeally induce selective tissue destruction in the liver without causing damage to the intervening abdominal wall. The potential usefulness of HIFU as a noninvasive therapy for liver cancer has been suggested. This study observes sonographic and computed tomography (CT) characteristics of HIFU-ablated liver tissue in an attempt to assess the possibility of using these imaging methods to monitor the therapeutic results.
