Outline • Indications for Y-90 in HCC • What are critical vessels ? • Clinical data on HCC • Case series
Therapeutic strategies • Resection • Transplantation • RF ablation • Chemoembolization(TACE) • Y-90 (SIRT) • Systemic therapy
SIRT for HCC Multiple / large lesions CI for TACE Child-A / good Child-B
SIRT Liver dose without tumor with hypervascular tumor

Outline • Indications for Y-90 in HCC • What are critical vessels ? • Clinical data on HCC • Case series
Conclusion Critical vessels must be identified IR has to be familiar with coilembolization SPECT/CT is a useful tool to identify additional shunts EASL criteria for therapy response Sorafenib helpful to reduce lung shunts
