Diagnostic and prognostic value of 99mTc-MAA SPECT/CT for treatment planning of 90Y-resin microsphere radioembolization for hepatocellular carcinoma: comparison with planar image

Abstract 99mTc-macroaggregated albumin (MAA) imaging is performed before transarterial radioembolization (TARE), in which SPECT/CT is presumed more precise than planar image. However, additive role of SPECT/CT has not been well established. Thirty-four consecutive hepatocellular carcinoma patients o...
