Abstract
ABSTRACT
The incidence of the liver tumors is increasing worldwide; concurrently liver directed therapies are also evolving rapidly. Management of these complex disease processes involves a multidisciplinary approach, hence it is imperative to understand the underlying management principles thoroughly. This overview is intended to provide an easy, step by step approach to transcatheter brachytherapy, also known as radioembolization (RE). A brief overview of the anatomical issues, transcatheter technique and intraarterial RE will be provided.
