-
Clinical Utility of Intraoperative Contrast Ultrasound in the Surgery of Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases.
Time frame: At time of surgery
The clinical utility will be evaluated in terms of justified modification of the surgical procedure following contrast-enhanced intra-operative ultrasound (CE-IOUS), compared to the surgical procedure following conventional intra-operative ultrasound. For each patient, we will consider CE-IOUS to be clinically useful: * if the surgical procedure envisaged at the end of the CE-IOUS is different fr
Sponsor's own description
Hypothesis: Use of contrast ultrasound showed interesting results, which can increase ultrasonography sensitivity performed during surgery in the evaluation of operable liver metastases. This study is a two-stage phase II multicenter study (Simon's two-stage).
