Abstract

The purpose of our study was to evaluate the efficacy of imaging-guided percutaneous radiofrequency ablation of metastatic pulmonary nodules caused by hepatocellular carcinoma. Percutaneous radiofrequency ablation is feasible and can be a promising method for the local control of metastatic pulmonary nodules caused by hepatocellular carcinoma, especially when they are limited in number.
