Radioembolization for hepatocellular carcinoma: Statistical confirmation of improved survival in responders by landmark analyses

Abstract

Response to radioembolization in patients with solitary HCC can prognosticate improved survival. EASL necrosis criteria outperformed RECIST 1.1 size criteria in predicting survival. The therapeutic objective of radioembolization should be radiologic response and not solely to prevent progression. (Hepatology 2018;67:873-883).
