Computational Fluid Dynamics Modeling of Liver Radioembolization: A Review

Jorge Aramburu et al.

Summary: This review introduces the clinical application and computational fluid dynamics modeling of Yttrium-90 radioembolization, reviews the CFD models used for studying the procedure from a fluid mechanics perspective, and shows what CFD simulations have taught us about the hemodynamics during radioembolization, current capabilities, and future perspectives.

Multiscale Computational Fluid Dynamics Modeling for Personalized Liver Cancer Radioembolization Dosimetry

Amirtaha Taebi et al.

Summary: Yttrium-90 radioembolization is a minimally invasive procedure increasingly used for advanced liver cancer treatment, delivering higher radiation dose to the tumor while minimizing exposure of the surrounding liver parenchyma. Computational modeling can predict the radiation dose distribution from Y-90 activity in different liver segments, indicating the importance of developing patient-specific dosimetry methods for effective treatment.

International recommendations for personalised selective internal radiation therapy of primary and metastatic liver diseases with yttrium-90 resin microspheres

Hugo Levillain et al.

Summary: This study established recommendations for the optimisation of selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) with yttrium-90 (Y-90)-resin microspheres, based on expert panel discussions and survey responses from leading experts in the field. The recommendations cover various aspects of SIRT, including activity prescription, post-treatment dosimetry, and imaging for treatment verification. It is recommended that a multidisciplinary team define treatment strategy and therapeutic intent, and that a personalised approach using dosimetry be adopted for activity prescription. Additionally, post-SIRT imaging and dosimetry are strongly recommended for treatment verification and assessment.
