TARE
Transarterial Radioembolization (TARE), also known as Selective Internal Radiation Therapy (SIRT), is a medical procedure used to treat certain liver cancers, particularly metastatic liver tumors and hepatocellular carcinoma. TARE involves the injection of tiny radioactive beads (Yttrium-90) directly into the arteries that supply blood to the liver tumors. These beads emit radiation, which targets and destroys cancer cells while minimizing damage to healthy liver tissue. TARE can help shrink tumors, relieve symptoms, and improve the quality of life for patients who are not suitable candidates for surgery or other treatments. It is often used in conjunction with other therapies for comprehensive cancer management.
