Multidisciplinary approach to the diagnosis of hepatoblastoma: ultrasound, nuclear medicine, and angiography.
This report demonstrates the findings of angiographic, nuclear medicine, and ultrasonic examinations in a case of primary liver neoplasm (hepatoblastoma). The use of a multidisciplinary approach pin-pointed the neoplasm and guided a liver biopsy for subsequent tissue diagnosis. The patient is now undergoing radiation therapy, with monitoring by serial ultrasonic examinations.
