{"title":"The Evolving Application of Radiation Segmentectomy for the Treatment of Hepatic Malignancy.","authors":"Robert J Lewandowski,Muhamad Serhal,Siddharth A Padia,Edward Kim,Daniel B Brown,Nora E Tabori,Beau B Toskich","doi":"10.1148/radiol.240333","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1148/radiol.240333","url":null,"abstract":"Transarterial radioembolization (TARE) is an image-guided cancer treatment that delivers microspheres carrying radiation-emitting isotopes, such as yttrium 90 (90Y), to liver malignancy via the hepatic arteries. Historically a palliative therapy for advanced liver cancer, TARE with 90Y has evolved via the segmental delivery of 90Y microspheres with ablative intent, known as radiation segmentectomy. The purpose of radiation segmentectomy is to deliver high radiation doses to targeted hepatic segments, limiting the volume of normal hepatic parenchyma exposed to radiation. Radiation segmentectomy is characterized by high, sustained response rates and high rates of explant necrosis. Currently, radiation segmentectomy is a recognized treatment option for patients with Child-Pugh class A liver function and solitary hepatocellular carcinoma that is 8 cm or smaller in size. It can be applied for hepatic metastases not amenable to resection or thermal ablation. Advancements in patient selection, technique, and radiation dosimetry for radiation segmentectomy have redefined the goal of TARE as a curative therapy. With improved dosimetry and patient selection, it has become more common to observe early responses at posttreatment imaging after radiation segmentectomy, even complete response within the first month of treatment. This article reviews the history of radiation segmentectomy, its expanding applications, and future directions.","PeriodicalId":20896,"journal":{"name":"Radiology","volume":"90 1","pages":"e240333"},"PeriodicalIF":19.7,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144578623","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These abnormalities have been described using varying terms in numerous publications. Chest CT lung abnormalities after COVID-19 infection tend to stabilize or regress over time, indicating that they are nonprogressive and postinfectious in nature. This multisociety consensus statement, developed by 21 thoracic radiologists from the European Society of Thoracic Imaging, the Society of Thoracic Radiology, and the Asian Society of Thoracic Radiology with a two-round survey process, aims to standardize the indication, acquisition, and reporting of post-COVID-19 residual lung abnormalities on CT scans. Key recommendations include performing chest CT in patients with persistent or progressive respiratory symptoms 3 months after infection, using low-dose CT protocols (range, 1-3 mSv) for follow-up chest CT examinations, using Fleischner Society glossary of terms for radiologic descriptors, and avoiding the term <i>interstitial lung abnormality</i> to describe post-COVID-19 abnormalities. Instead, to prevent misinterpreting post-COVID-19 abnormalities as an early manifestation of interstitial lung disease, use the term <i>post-COVID-19 residual lung abnormality</i>. This consensus statement will help harmonize radiology practice and research for the substantial number of affected patients.</p>","PeriodicalId":20896,"journal":{"name":"Radiology","volume":"316 1","pages":"e243374"},"PeriodicalIF":12.1,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144691365","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
