| Research Abstract |
We examined the basic study of a new monitoring system of anti-angiogenic therapy to liver cancer using high frequency ultrasonic microvascular imaging. With the Micro Flow Imaging (MFI), the vascular pattern was associated with HCC. With the Parametric Imaging (PI), the high blood flow was observed in the tumor vessels of HCC. Additionally, in the necrotic stage, tumor vessels were decreased and the blood flow were lower than non-necrotic stage. These results of our study should contribute new ideas toward development for living tumor vascular monitoring system using high frequency ultrasonic microvascular imaging.
