Treatment of Neuroendocrine Tumors with Selective Internal Radiation Therapy,zed. While ablative therapies can treat one lesion at a time, most patients benefit from having a regional approach to their treatment. Use of .Yttrium beads has been demonstrated to not only be safe and effective but also to permit significant quality of life since the treatments are performed on an outpatient basis.

In the present chapter current data regarding the role of this approach in the management of liver metastases from other tumor types are provided.

Radioembolization-Induced Liver Disease,embolization. Its incidence is likely to be lower than 10 % and it has a transient or stable course in most cases, but it may unusually lead to overt liver failure. A conservative dose prescription and the use of low-dose steroids or ursodeoxycholic acid have been suggested as prophylactic measures.

Principles for Combining Radioembolisation with Systemic Chemotherapy for Metastatic Colorectal Canhemotherapy have shown promising results in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. In this chapter, the scientific rationale for combining RE with chemotherapy is outlined and the evidence base for combining RE with systemic chemotherapy in the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer is appraised.

Since these metastases are usually unresectable at initial diagnosis, this treatment has been increasingly used in salvage setting for these patients.

Complications and Side Effects,aken in order to understand the angiographic, technical, and safety aspects concerning liver radioembolization. The most common complications of radioembolization include non-target radiation (pancreatitis, GI ulcers, cholecystitis), radiation pneumonitis, radiation-induced liver disease (radiation hepatitis), and biliary complications.
