Abstract:
The experience gained through the practice of radioembolization (SIRT) results in improvement of clinical outcomes. Improved outcomes are a prerequisite for the clinicians to reffer patients for SIRT. In recent years there are some critical changes in the concept and practice of SIRT that also contribute to the improvement of clinical outcomes, beyond the experience of the center performing SIRT. Two of them are dosimetry and a trend toward more focused therapies in the form of radiation lobectomy or segmentectomy.
