62-year old female patient with hepatic metastases from a uveal melanoma in both liver lobes. According to tumor-board decision, right hemihepatectomy was planned after thermoablation of a metastasis in the left liver lobe. Pre-interventional T2-weighted TSE imaging (a) shows the target lesion planned for thermoablation. However, intra-procedural planning imaging (b) reveals a new small lesion subcapsular in segment 2 (arrow). Both tumors could be treated during the same procedure as depicted by intra-interventional T1-weighted sequences (c and d) showing two radiofrequency antennas targeting both target tumors. T1-weighted control imaging shows the T1 hyperintense ablation zones covering both target tumors (e). Right hemihepatectomy was conducted 1 month after ablation
