Yttrium-90 Radioembolization of Hepatic Metastases from Colorectal Cancer
Liver metastases from colorectal cancer (CRC) result in substantial morbidity and mortality. The primary treatment is systemic chemotherapy, and in selected patients, surgical resection; however, for patients who are not surgical candidates and/or fail systemic chemotherapy, liver-directed therapies are increasingly being utilized. Yttrium-90 (Y-90) microsphere therapy, also known as selective ...
متن کاملSafety of a Scout Dose Preceding Hepatic Radioembolization with 166Ho Microspheres.
UNLABELLED Before (166)Ho radioembolization, a small batch of the same type of microspheres is administered as a scout dose instead of the conventional (99m)Tc-macroaggregated albumin ((99m)Tc-MAA). The (166)Ho scout dose provides a more accurate and precise lung shunt assessment. However, in contrast to (99m)Tc-MAA, an unintended extrahepatic deposition of this β-emitting scout dose could infl...
متن کاملRole of Molecular Biomarkers in Colorectal Cancer
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is amongst the most widespread cancers and is a most common cause of cancer associated mortality universally. Since previous decades, it has been cleared that CRC develops owing to the buildup of a series of genetic and epigenetic changes in the normal colonic epithelium. Regardless of the current development in surgery and therapies, overall survival of end stage CRC pa...
متن کاملEpigenetics in diagnosis of colorectal cancer
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a third most common epithelial carcinoma. CRC is known to develop from the early precancerous lesion to full blown malignancy via definite phases due to cumulative mutations and aberrant methylation of number of genes. The use of serum biomarkers that is non-invasive to discriminate cancer patients from healthy persons will prove to be an important tool to improve the...
