Objetivo:
Analizar retrospectivamente la seguridad y eficacia de la ablación percutánea tanto de la radiofrecuencia (RF) como del microondas (MWs) en el manejo de tumores de la cúpula hepática por vía transpulmonar.
I'm finding very few results for either hepatic cupula or liver cupula, so wondering if a different term is used.
Thanks in advance,
Juliette

I'm only giving this 3 because I'm finding it hard to locate a clear anatomical description of what the "cúpula hepática" actually is. I think it just means the top part of the liver, which is kind of dome-shaped, fitting into the dome of the diaphragm. Anyway, "hepatic dome" is fairly common in English, and there is a reasonable sprinkling of results for "hepatic dome tumo(u)rs", and some also for "liver dome tumo(u)rs", so I think you could use either.

The liver is an irregularly, domed shaped organ. The hepatic dome refers to the top 1/3rd of the liver, especially the part that the lungs overlay."
