Role of Contrast‐Enhanced Ultrasound in the Detection of Complications After Ultrasound‐Guided Liver Interventional Procedures

The role of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in interventional ultrasound-guided procedures in the liver has been increasingly recognized. However, little is known about the capability of CEUS for diagnosing complications after liver biopsy and ablation with special regard to postprocedural hemorrhage. The aim of this Pictorial Essay is to present the CEUS features of a wide spectrum of vascular complications (with or without bleeding) and injuries of the surrounding abdominal and chest wall occurring after liver interventional procedures.
