Selective internal radiation therapy in patients with progressive neuroendocrine liver metastases
European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, 2015To evaluate the safety and efficacy of selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) in patients with unresectable liver metastases from neuroendocrine tumours (NETLMs).This retrospective study included 40 patients with progressive NETLMs (22 women, 18 men, mean age 61.6 years) who underwent SIRT with (90)Y-labelled resin microspheres.

Hypertrophy in the Contralateral Lobe Post-Selective Internal Radiation Therapy
Future Oncology, 2014In patients with unilateral, primary and secondary liver tumors potentially amenable to curative resection, the need to perform an extended hepatectomy in order to affect a cure can often be hampered by insufficient liver volume in the future liver remnant (FLR).

Cost of Selective Internal Radiation Therapy Versus Other Modalities
Future Oncology, 2014Evaluation of comparative effectiveness and cost–effectiveness is an essential component in the integration of new technologies into medical management, with data from prospective clinical trials (e.g., health-related quality of life using validated tools) being mandated by most health authorities.

Treatment of Neuroendocrine Tumors with Selective Internal Radiation Therapy
2013The pathophysiology of neuroendocrine tumors (NET) is discussed and the differences in types of tumors within this broad category are highlighted. While carcinoid is the most common of the NETs, the general principles of treatment can be extrapolated to the NETs in general.

Selective internal radiation therapy for liver metastases from colorectal cancer
Cancer Treatment Reviews, 2016Liver metastases are often the dominant site of metastatic disease in colorectal cancer. Selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) involves embolising radiolabeled spheres (SIR-Spheres) into the arterial supply of the liver. This review assesses the effectiveness and toxicity of SIRT in the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer liver metastasis ...

Selective Internal Radiation Therapy with Yttrium-90 for Unresectable Liver Tumours
Reviews on Recent Clinical Trials, 2007Primary and secondary liver tumours are common malignancies that are being treated more aggressively nowadays than decades ago. Surgery is the most effective method of treatment but is only suitable for a minority of patients with well-defined and easily accessible tumours.

Selective Internal Radiation Therapy-induced Extrahepatic Injury
American Journal of Surgical Pathology, 2009Selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) using Yttrium microspheres is a novel therapeutic approach to the localized treatment of hepatic tumors. It provides a distinct advantage over conventional external beam radiation in that its targeted nature allows the directed delivery of high doses of radiation to tumors while sparing the surrounding ...

[Therapy response of liver tumors after selective internal radiation therapy].
Der Radiologe, 2009Selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) is used for the treatment of patients with liver tumors, especially for those with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) or liver metastases from various primary tumors. Currently this innovative treatment concept is recommended when established state-of-the-art treatment regimes have failed and tumor progression is
