VueBox® for quantitative analysis of contrast-enhanced ultrasound in liver tumors

Dynamic contrast-enhanced ultrasound (DCE-US) enables quantification of tumor perfusion. VueBox (R) is a platform independent external software using DICOM cine loops which objectively provides various DCE-US parameters of tumor vascularity. This review summaries its use for diagnosis and treatment monitoring of liver tumors. The existing literature provides evidence on the successful application of Vuebox (R) based DCE-US for characterization and differential diagnosis of focal liver lesions, as well as on its use for monitoring of local ablative therapies and of modern systemic treatment in oncology.
