Personalized imaging to plan liver ablation
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study uses ultrasound and MRI images to help plan a more precise heat treatment (ablation) for liver cancer. The aim is to target the tumor better while protecting healthy liver tissue.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have been diagnosed with liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma, or HCC).
- Your treatment must be meant to cure the cancer (not just to reduce symptoms).
- You need to have complete medical records and imaging (such as ultrasound and MRI) from before and after your planned treatment.
- You must be at least 18 years old.

This study tests new criteria for evaluating how well thermal ablation (using heat to destroy cancer nodules) worked in people with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC, a type of liver cancer). It aims to improve follow-up imaging with contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) or CT/MRI to see if the treatment was successful.
This study follows patients who are having a procedure called thermal ablation to treat liver tumors. It aims to learn more about how well the procedure works and how safe it is.
This study tests an investigational drug called IP-001 given after surgery or microwave ablation for liver cancer. The goal is to help prevent the cancer from coming back.
This trial uses an AI system to help doctors plan surgery for liver cancer. It is for people who have had a CT scan of their liver and may or may not have a liver tumor.
This trial uses artificial intelligence to help doctors better stage (classify the severity of) and plan treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma, a type of primary liver cancer. Researchers will collect your clinical information and imaging to see if AI can improve decision-making about your care.
This study compares two nonsurgical procedures for liver cancer: stereotactic radiosurgery (focused radiation) and radiofrequency ablation (heat therapy). It is for people whose tumor is in a tricky spot near major blood vessels or other structures, making surgery difficult, and who have not received prior treatment.
