Excerpt

Arterial flow redistribution by coil embolization has become common clinical practice during the diagnostic work-up before transarterial radioembolization (RE). However, there is still limited knowledge on how redistribution occurs, and debate is ongoing regarding indications, outcomes’ evaluation and optimal time interval between embolization and treatment. The paper by Asultan provides some interesting information in the attempt to answer to some of these open questions [1]. …
