High-Dose Radioembolization with Resin Microspheres Limited by Lung Shunt for Localized Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Virtual Tumor Absorbed Dose as a Predictor of Complete Response

Key Points

• Complete response is significantly predicted by tumor absorbed dose, emphasizing its role in treatment outcomes.
• The study utilized a range of localized hepatocellular carcinoma cases to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment.
• Virtual tumor absorbed dose assessment was a crucial method for predicting outcomes in patients with lung shunt limitations.
• Findings indicate that optimizing resin microspheres in the presence of lung shunts could enhance treatment efficacy.
