متن کاملNovel 175Yb-Poly (L-lactic acid) microspheres for transarterial radioembolization of unrespectable hepatocellular carcinoma
Novel biodegradable Poly (L-lactic acid) (PLLA) microspheres containing ytterbium were designed for intra-tumoral radiotherapy, especially for radioembolization. 175Yb possess both therapeutic beta and diagnostic gamma radiations. In this work, process to make ready radiomicrospheres 175Yb(acac)3-loaded PLLA for more consideration has been investigated. The radiomicrospheres were prepared with ...
