Early dynamic changes in circulating tumor cells and prognostic relevance following interventional radiological treatments in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.

The aim of this study was to investigate the dynamic changes of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) before and immediately after conducting a microwave ablation (MWA) and conventional transarterial chemoembolization (C-TACE). Additionally, the CTCs short-te...
