During the last decade, the use of holmium-166 (166Ho) microspheres as radioembolization device has been increasing throughout Europe. Chapter 1 presented the use of 166Ho microspheres as an alternative to 90Y for radioembolization, during the scout and the treatment, describing the steps involved in the clinical workflow. 166Ho imaging possibilities,
