Radiation safety aspects of 90Y bremsstrahlung radiation produced from radiation shielding apparatus using the Monte Carlo simulation [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2021
Selective internal radiation therapy using an 90Y labelled microsphere is increasingly used to treat hepatocellular carcinoma. Based on its properties, 90Y can produce bremsstrahlung radiation which is essential for post-treatment localisation ...

Radioactive Microspheres for Selective Internal Radiation Therapy of Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, 2023
Selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) as one of the radiotherapeutic techniques has been widely used in the treatment of primary and metastatic liver cancer, for better avoiding radiation damage to normal tissues from external exposure.

Hybrid kernelised expectation maximisation for Bremsstrahlung SPECT reconstruction in SIRT with 90Y micro-spheres

open access: yesEJNMMI Physics, 2022
Background Selective internal radiation therapy with Yttrium-90 microspheres is an effective therapy for liver cancer and liver metastases. Yttrium-90 is mainly a high-energy beta particle emitter.

Selective internal radiation therapy for liver tumours [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Medicine, 2017
Primary and secondary liver malignancies are common and associated with a poor prognosis. Surgical resection is the treatment of choice; however, many patients have unresectable disease. In these cases, several liver directed therapies are available, including selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT).

Selective internal radiation therapies for unresectable early-, intermediate- or advanced-stage hepatocellular carcinoma: systematic review, network meta-analysis and economic evaluation

open access: yesHealth Technology Assessment, 2020
Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma is the most common type of primary liver cancer. Treatment choice is dependent on underlying liver dysfunction and cancer stage.

Stereotactic Inverse Dose Planning After Yttrium-90 Selective Internal Radiation Therapy in Hepatocellular Cancer

open access: yesAdvances in Radiation Oncology, 2021
Purpose: Selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) is administered to treat tumors of the liver and is generally well tolerated. Although widely adopted for its therapeutic benefits, SIRT is rarely combined with external beam radiation therapy (EBRT ...

Long-Term Maintained Response to Selective Internal Radiation Therapy in an Oligometastatic Uveal Melanoma Patient Treated with Concomitant Anti-PD-1 Therapy

open access: yesLife, 2021
Uveal melanoma (UM) is a primary neoplasm of the eye arising from the melanocytes residing in the iris, ciliary body or choroid. It is the most frequent intraocular malignancy and often determines metastases at distant sites, with a peculiar tropism for ...
