Selective internal radiation therapy for liver malignancies

British Journal of Surgery, 2015
Abstract Background Selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) is a non-ablative technique for the treatment of liver primaries and metastases, with the intention of reducing tumour bulk. This study aimed to determine optimal patient selection, and elucidate its role as a downsizing modality.

Long-term radiological and histological outcomes following selective internal radiation therapy to liver metastases from breast cancer

Radiology Case Reports, 2018
Liver metastasis from breast cancer is associated with poor prognosis and is a major cause of early morbidity and mortality. When liver resection is not feasible, minimally invasive directed therapies are considered to attempt to prolong survival ...
