    28/12/2021: TS. Mai Hồng Sơn (Bệnh viện Trung ương Quân đội (TWQĐ) 108), Treatment planning of 90Y-resin microsphere radioembolization for hepatocellular carcinoma

    Liver cancer is globally the sixth-most frequent cancer and the fourth-leading cause of death from cancer. Approximately, a million people die of liver cancer annually with the higher rates of liver cancer occurring in sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia. Vietnam has around 20 thousand people die of liver cancer each year, ranking in the top three worldwide. The most common primary liver cancer in Vietnam is hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and more than two-thirds of the diagnosed HCC patients are in the advanced stage. Transarterial radioembolization (TARE) is a potential treatment for such patients. In this talk, I’ll present the background of liver cancer, the current situation in Vietnam, and the TARE treatment process using 90Y-microsphere. Furthermore, I’ll present our most up-to-date research results in this field. In the end, some potential AI technologies applied in the field will be discussed.
