Abstract

In current clinical practice, (99m)Tc-MAA distribution does not accurately predict final (90)Y activity distribution. Awareness of the importance of catheter positioning and adherence to specific recommendations may lead to optimization of individualized treatment planning based on pretreatment imaging.
