Use of combined size and necrosis criteria may lead to more accurate assessment of response to 90Y therapy than use of size criteria alone. Imaging features after 90Y treatment, including size, necrosis, peripheral enhancing nodules, and thin rim enhancement, are described.
The use of necrosis and size criteria on CT and correlation with PET may improve the accuracy of assessment of response to 90Y treatment in patients with liver metastases and detect response earlier than standard size criteria.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
