  • Description: This volume takes into account the great impact of new technology on clinical practice for mass liver lesions. Its findings reflect a consensus meeting of experts assembled in order to develop guidelines for the use of ultrasound contrast agents in the diagnosis of liver diseases. These guidelines are presented in this book which provides an important starting point for clinical implementation of new diagnostic procedure.

    The imaging-based diagnosis of mass liver lesions has become increasingly complex due to the number and morphological variability of lesions that modern imaging techniques are able to display. This book provides an important starting point for clinical implementation of the diagnostic procedure
