Críticas:

"This book will be a valuable resource for anyone already in the field of radioembolisation, whether it be for clinical or scientific guidance, as well as those just starting up and wishing to familiarise themselves with the procedure. It offers detailed insight into the many facets that contribute to successful therapy, and through its multidisciplinary nature promises be a useful tool in improving safety and efficacy of treatment, and establishing a personalised approach to radioembolisation."
―Dr. Kathy Willowson, The University of Sydney

 

"An essential book for anybody who is involved or is planning to start Y-90 radioemboliziation, covering state-of-the-art dosimetry approaches using bremsstrahlung SPECT/CT and PET/CT imaging, with excellent descriptions of advantages and limitations."
―Dr. Karin Knešaurek, Department of Radiology, Icahn School of Medicine, Mount Sinai Hospital

 

"a comprehensive yet practical study of selective internal radiation therapy. Representing the latest concepts and research relating to radioembolization, the book takes the reader through the basics in a logical and cohesive manner. The authors have managed to present complex topics and arms of controversy in an objective, scientific and honest manner, allowing the reader to adapt and evolve with the thought processes behind various advanced therapeutic strategies. This text should be part of a core curriculum for those users starting SIRT, and advanced users alike."
―David Liu, MD, Vancouver Imaging Inc and University of British Columbia

 

"a well written book on principles and practice of hepatic radioembolization, with excellent emphasis on dosimetry, radiobiology and post-therapy imaging. I strongly recommend this to all physicians engaged in treating liver tumors with radioembolization."
―Sanjeeva Kalva, MD, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center

 

"provides a detailed account of the background, logistics, rationale, and key patient selection factors in the use of a multidisciplinary radiation implantation approach to hepatic cancers. The often misunderstood aspects of 90Y activity planning... are well covered and explained clearly"
―Andrew S. Kennedy, MD, Sarah Cannon Research Institute

Reseña del editor:

Radioembolization is a widely used treatment for non-resectable primary and secondary liver cancer. This handbook addresses the radiation biology, physics, nuclear medicine, and imaging for radioembolization using Yttrium-90 (90Y) microspheres, in addition to discussing aspects related to interventional radiology. The contents reflect on and off-label treatment indications, dose-response relationships, treatment-planning, therapy optimization, radiation safety, imaging follow-up and many other facets of this therapy necessary for both novice and advanced users alike.
