Results suggest that there is significant mean reduction of hepatic metastatic tumor load (metabolism), as evaluated objectively by PET after Y-90 microsphere, for the treatment of unresectable metastatic disease to the liver. The Y-90 therapy provides encouraging and safe results by arresting the progression of metastatic cancer to the liver with decreasing tumor metabolism.
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.
