Yttrium-90 selective internal radiation therapy on liver cancer: the past, the present, and the future [PDF]

Zhongguo Linchuang Yixue
Yttrium-90 selective internal radiation therapy (90Y-SIRT) is a treatment technique that delivers radioactive microspheres precisely to the arterial vascular bed of neoplasms, utilizing beta radiation to administer a high local dose of radiation to the ...

Selective Internal Radiation Therapy for Liver Metastasis of Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma

Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 2019
Abstract Papillary carcinoma of thyroid (PTC) is the most common neoplasm of the thyroid gland that usually invades lymphatics rather than blood vessels. Hematogenous metastasis of PTC is rare, and distant metastasis to the liver is even rarer.

Selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) in primary or secondary liver cancer

Methods, 2011
Most patients with a history of common solid tumors will in the end develop liver metastases. Next to that, primary liver cancer, is a frequent cancer with fatal liver failure in the majority of patients. Selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT), has gradually been introduced over the recent years and is a promising, innovative albeit palliative ...

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

Nuclear 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 ...
