Radiofrequency ablation therapy (RFA) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is widely performed as curative treatment, most of it under ultrasound guidance. Some nodules cannot be visualized clearly on sonography but can be visualized on computed tomography imaging (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Recently, a system that synchronizes real-time ultrasound images with CT, MRI or ultrasound images has been developed and has greatly helped in treating HCC. In addition, it is useful for the evaluation of RFA for HCC. We introduce RFA for HCC using this system with Volume-Data and present clinical application methods.
