Abstract
Hepatic ultrasonograms (334) were obtained in 93 patients to evaluate the chemotherapeutic response of their metastatic lesions. Four patterns of response were noted. The ultrasonographic results were correlated with those of other diagnostic modalities and were extremely accurate when lesions were judged to have improved, worsened, or remained unchanged. A 4th type of response, a change in the initial ultrasonographic pattern, was difficult to evaluate and its significance is discussed.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
