First seen Mar 19, 2026 · Last updated May 01, 2026 · Updated 5 times

Summary

This study is testing whether a special ultrasound contrast agent called Sonazoid can help doctors better tell apart benign (non-cancerous) and malignant (cancerous) liver masses in children. About 50 children under 18 with a liver mass will receive an injection of Sonazoid during an ultrasound. The goal is to see if this method is as accurate as CT or MRI scans, but without radiation or sedation.
