| Ref. | Year | Size and number |
| Milan[5] | 1996 | 1 lesion ≤ 5 cm, or 2 to 3 lesions each ≤ 3 |
| University of California San Francisco[6] | 2001 | 1 lesion ≤ 6.5 cm, 2-3 lesions each ≤ 4.5 cm with total tumor diameter ≤ 8 cm |
| Tokyo University[8] | 2008 | Up to 5 tumors, each < 5 cm |
| Asan Medical Center[9] | 2008 | The largest tumor diameter < 5 cm, tumor number ≤ 6 |
