New frontiers in radioembolization
Radioembolization is a locoregional transarterial therapy that combines radionuclide and micron-sized beads to deliver radiation internally to the target tumors based on the arterial blood flow. While initially developed as a palliative treatment option,

Beyond hepatocellular carcinoma and colorectal metastasis: The expanding applications of radioembolization [PDF]
As a relatively safe outpatient procedure, radioembolization can potentially be used to treat any type of tumor within the liver, primary or metastatic. The safety and effectiveness of radioembolization in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)

Background: PET imaging after yttrium-90 (Y-90) radioembolization is challenging because of the low positron fraction of Y-90 (32 × 10−6). The resulting low number of events can be compensated by the high sensitivity of long axial field-of-view (LAFOV ...

Association Between Discharge Medications and Oncologic Post-Embolization-Syndrome-Related Outcomes. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Post‐embolization syndrome after transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) and Yttrium‐90 radioembolization (TARE) causes significant morbidity. Understanding whether discharge prescriptions influence short‐term outcomes may guide standardized pain‐management strategies.

Can non-tumorous liver tissue serve as a reliable reference measure for [18F]FDG-PET-CT after unilobar 90Y glass radioembolization in patients with colorectal liver metastases? [PDF]
Background Effect of radiation on [18F]FDG-uptake in non-tumorous liver tissue after radioembolization is sparsely investigated, despite the liver being the most common reference for assessment of metabolic response (e.g., PET Response Criteria In Solid ...

Laparoscopic right hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma after sequential yttrium-90 liver radioembolization and liver venous deprivation (with video) [PDF]
Laparoscopic right hepatectomy has gained acceptance for major oncologic hepatectomies. Preoperative sequential strategies for induced tumor downsizing and contralateral liver hypertrophy ensure the safety of these major hepatectomies, especially in ...

Interventional oncology: A primer for clinicians on the role of ablation and embolization for solid tumors. [PDF]
Abstract Interventional radiology (IR) is a rapidly evolving medical field that combines advanced imaging with minimally invasive techniques for both diagnosis and treatment. Interventional oncology (IO), a subspecialty of IR, focuses on the minimally invasive, image‐guided intervention for cancer and cancer‐related conditions.
