Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Practice: Optimizing Workflows & Treatment Decisions

Dr. Juan Gimenez and Dr. Tyler Sandow explain how they built their hepatocellular carcinoma practice, the finer points of their patient workflows, and how they make treatment decisions favoring a high volume of Y90 radioembolization.

Moving Y90 from the Hospital to the OBL: A Quickstart Guide for Physicians

Moving certain interventional radiology procedures, such as Y90, from the hospital to the office-based lab (OBL) is garnering favor with physicians and patients. Dr. Jayson Brower describes how he set up Y90 in his OBL and advises on how to mirror his practice model.

Y90 in the OBL: Benefits & Considerations

Moving Y90 from the hospital to the office-based lab (OBL) can be an extensive undertaking. As interventional radiologist Dr. Jayson Brower explains, there are several benefits for both providers and patients, such as control of the procedure environment, improved convenience, and increased satisfaction for patients and providers.

Interventional radiologist performing pressure directed Y90 procedure

A pressure directed device may help increase control of Y90 radioembolization delivery to the tumor in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Having performed around 200 pressure directed procedures, Dr. Nutting describes his use of Surefire’s guide catheter and microcatheters when working with the Surefire Infusion System.

Surefire pressure directed infusion system radioembolization tumor

When treating HCC with Y90 radioembolization, a hypovascular tumor with low visibility on angiogram can indicate that a pressure directed device may help to deliver more of the intended dose to the tumor. Studies have shown that pressure directed devices increase tumor uptake and decrease non-target embolization.

Surefire pressure directed infusion system used on hcc tumor

The goal of Y90 radioembolization is to deliver the full dose of therapeutic to the tumor. Pressure directed therapy intermittently stops arterial flow and pushes therapeutic into the tumor using pressure that builds up during infusion, overcoming some of the technical limitations of end-hole catheters.
