nameGuidance for injection of Hepatic artery-- W Tc-99m MAA IA
descriptionThis procedure is done prior to therapeutic liver radioembolization with Y-90, in order to assess the degree of arteriovenous shunting between the tumor and the lungs. Y-90 is associated with a risk of radiation pneumonitis while Tc-99m MAA is not, so the latter can be used to evaluate if shunting is present prior to Y-90 injection.[PMID: 16923973]
