AbstractHigh-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) has been shown to be a valuable tool in the management of small liver tumors such as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It has been shown to be a safe and effective means to ablate small HCC even in the presence of advanced cirrhosis. This review examines the challenges faced during HIFU ablation when the target tumors are located in difficult locations such as the liver dome, close to the rib cage, near large blood vessels or the heart, or adjacent to hollow viscera; and the special maneuvers employed to tackle such lesions.
