Apparent diffusion coefficient quantification as an early imaging biomarker of response and predictor of survival following yttrium-90 radioembolization for unresectable infiltrative hepatocellular carcinoma with portal vein thrombosis.

Purpose: To investigate early diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) at 30-days post-yttrium-90 (Y-90) radioembolization as a predictor of treatment response and survival in unresectable infiltrative hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with portal vein thrombosis (PVT).Materials and Methods: In a prospective s...
