Ablation zone visualization enhancement by periodic contrast‐enhancement computed tomography during microwave ablation

Purpose Intra‐procedural contrast‐enhanced computed tomography (CECT) has been proposed to monitor the growth of thermal ablations. The primary challenge with multiple CT acquisitions is reducing radiation dose while maintaining sufficient image quality. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the...
