OBJECTIVE: To compare the acute and chronic safety and treatment effects of non-invasive hepatic histotripsy vs. percutaneous microwave (MW) ablation in a healthy porcine model.
METHODS: This was a dual-arm study in which each animal (n = 14) received either a single hepatic microwave (n = 6) or histotripsy (n = 6 single treatment; n = 2 double treatment) under ultrasound guidance. The goal was to create 2.5-3.0 cm short-axis treatments in similar locations across modalities. Animals were survived for 1 month with contrast-enhanced CT imaging on days 0, 2, 7, 14, and 28. On day 28, necropsy and histopathology were performed.
RESULTS: All procedures were well-tolerated. MW ablation zones were longer and more oblong, but equivalent in the short axes to histotripsy zones on immediate post-procedure CT (p < 0.001 and p = 0.45, respectively). Overall, MW volumes were larger (21.4 cm3 vs. 13.4 cm3; p = 0.001) and histotripsy treatment zones were more spherical (p = 0.007). Histotripsy zones were close to the prescribed size (p < 0.001). Over the study period, histotripsy treatment zones decreased in volume while microwave ablation zones slightly increased (-83% vs. +17%, p = 0.001). There were several imaging-only findings: Branch portal vein thrombus with both histotripsy (7/8) and MW (6/6), hematoma in 2/6 MW only, and a gallbladder injury in 1/6 MW animals. The ablation zones demonstrated complete cellular destruction for both modalities.
CONCLUSION: Histotripsy was associated with more spherical treatments, fewer biliary complications, and greater treatment zone involution. Hepatic MW and histotripsy treatment in a normal porcine model appear at least equally effective for creating treatment zones with a similar safety profile.
KEY POINTS: • Microwave ablation and histotripsy for liver treatment in a healthy porcine model yield equivalent procedural tolerance and cellular destruction. • Histotripsy was associated with more spherical treatments, fewer biliary complications, and greater treatment zone involution over the 28-day follow-up period. • These findings confirm the safety and efficacy of hepatic histotripsy and support the pursuit of clinical trials to further evaluate the translatability of these results.
