The objective of this study was to explore the thermal field distribution of cystic lesions undergoing microwave ablation (MWA) and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) using in vitro phantoms.

Thermal Field Distributions of Ablative Experiments Using Cyst-mimicking Phantoms: Comparison of Microwave and Radiofrequency Ablation.

Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a global public health problem associated with a high overall disease burden. Multiple organ systems are involved in approximately 20% of cases, and treatment is challenging and rarely reported. In this study, we described microwave ablation (MWA) combining surgery for the treatment of a multiorgan CE patient. The patient underwent percutaneous MWA for a hepatic CE3b lesion and exploratory resection of the pelvic cavity lesions. The hepatic lesion was effectively treated by MWA, and invasiveness was reduced by avoiding hepatectomy. The patient had a favorable prognosis at a 20-month's follow-up. More studies are needed to evaluate its usefulness in CE treatment.

Microwave ablation combining surgery for the treatment of multiorgan cystic echinococcosis: A case report.

Misclassifications of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis (HAE) as intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) may lead to inappropriate treatment strategies. The aim of this study was to explore the differential diagnosis with conventional ultrasound and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS).

Differential diagnosis between hepatic alveolar echinococcosis and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma with conventional ultrasound and contrast-enhanced ultrasound.

Ultrasonography is the most widely used technique to diagnose echinococcosis; however, challenges in using this technique and the demand on medical resources, especially in low-income or remote areas, can delay diagnosis. We aimed to develop a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) model based on ultrasonography to identify echinococcosis and its types, especially alveolar echinococcosis.
