Summary

Fusion imaging of US and MRI is very helpful for interventional procedure such as radiofrequency ablation in liver. However, manual registration of US and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is somewhat time-consuming and difficult for less-experienced physicians. Recently, automatic registration function was developed to help the fusion of US and CT/MRI imaging. The purpose of this trial is to compare the registration time and accuracy of manual registration system and automatic registration system.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Automatic Imaging fusion of ultrasonography and MRI

Radiofrequency ablation for hepatic malignancies will be performed with automatic registration registration. Except the imaging registration, all other procedures for RF ablation is same.

DEVICE

Manual Imaging fusion of ultrasonography and MRI

Radiofrequency ablation for hepatic malignancies will be performed with manual registration registration. Except the imaging registration, all other procedures for RF ablation is same.
