Imaging Methods in the Evaluation of the Effects of Liver Tumours Therapy
Ludvík, Jaroslav ; Ferda, Jiří (advisor) ; Mechl, Marek (referee) ; Ungermann, Leoš (referee)
Imaging methods in the evaluation of the effects of liver tumours therapy Objectives. Liver resection is the only potential curative therapy of liver tumours today. Small future liver remnant volume (FLRV) after the resection is a limitation with the risk of hepatic failure. The increase of FLRV after portal vein embolization (PVE) is often inadequate. PVE with contralateral application of hematopoietic stem cells (HCS) can facilitate the regeneration of liver. CT liver volumetry enables to evaluate the increase of FLRV and the safety of liver resection. By automatic CT liver volumetry it is possible to determine the size of liver segments, the volume of the tumour and to make a 3D reconstruction of liver vessels. The aim of the first prospective study was to verify the effect of HSC on the liver growth. The impact of both HSC derived from peripheral blood and from bone marrow was compared. The second, retrospective study aimed to evaluate the accuracy and the speed of the automatic CT liver volumetry in comparison to manual CT volumetry. Material and methods. 20 patients (the group I) underwent PVE with the contralateral application of HSC in the 1st study. In the control group II (n = 20) was performed PVE only. By the manual CT volumetry (Syngo Volume, Siemens Healthineers, Forchheim, Germany)...
