Assessment of the cryoablation margin using MRI–CT fusion imaging in hepatic malignancies

Highlights: • The minimal ablation margin (MAM) measurement using MRI-CT fusion images is significantly related to LTP. • MRI-CT fusion imaging is feasible and useful for evaluating the MAM of cryoablation in hepatic malignancies. • MRI-CT fusion imaging enables intraoperative treatment evaluation in hepatic malignancies. -- Abstract: To demonstrate the feasibility of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)–computed tomography (CT) fusion imaging for the assessment of the ablative margin after cryoablation in hepatic malignancies.
