Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
EMA (colour scale) images will be compared to baseline US grey-scale images for a specific target lesion, as determined by standard of care imaging (US, CT, MRI or PET) and/or histologically proven lesion in a given subject.
Secondary outcome measures
US grey-scale and EMA colour maps will be obtained from both target liver lesions and background liver tissue from the same subject and compared.
