Radioembolization with yttrium-90 ((90)Y) microspheres relies on delivery of appropriate treatment activity to ensure patient safety and optimize treatment efficacy. We report a case in which (90)Y positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) was performed to optimize treatment planning during a same-day, three-part treatment session. This treatment consisted of (i) an initial (90)Y infusion with a dosage determined using an empiric treatment planning model, (ii) quantitative (90)Y PET/CT imaging, and (iii) a secondary infusion with treatment planning based on quantitative imaging data with the goal of delivering a specific total tumor absorbed dose.
使用钇-90(90Y)微球进行放射性栓塞依赖于给予适当的治疗活度,以确保患者安全并优化治疗效果。我们报告了一例在同一天分三个步骤进行的治疗过程中,采用90Y正电子发射断层扫描(PET)/计算机断层扫描(CT)来优化治疗计划的病例。该治疗包括:(i)首次输注90Y,使用经验性治疗计划模型确定剂量;(ii)定量90Y PET/CT成像;(iii)基于定量成像数据进行治疗计划的二次输注,目标是给予特定的总肿瘤吸收剂量。
