Short-term effectiveness of radiochemoembolization for selected hepatic metastases with a combination protocol

Figure 1 Radiochemoembolization images. A, B: Pre- (A) and post- (B) radiochemoembolization images in a 27 year-old female with a metastatic carcinoid tumor. There is no evidence of enhancing of the viable tumor after treatment. Based on modified response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (mRECIST) criteria, the response is complete, but regarding RECIST criteria we have a partial response; C, D: Pre- (C) and post- (D) radiochemoembolization images in a 41 year-old female with a metastatic carcinoid tumor. Based on modified response evaluation criteria in solid tumors criteria the response is partial; E, F: Pre- (E) and post- (F) radiochemoembolization images in a 55 year-old male with a metastatic colorectal carcinoma. Based on modified response evaluation criteria in solid tumors criteria the response is progressive.
