Transforming HCC Care: Innovations in Treatment and Transplant Pathways

Watch how a healthcare institution has adapted its liver cancer treatment and transplant pathways in response to changes in the transplant allocation system. The emphasis is on the Multidisciplinary Liver Conference and the integration of innovative technologies, specifically TheraSphere Y-90 Microsphere therapy, which has led to durable outcomes comparable to leading centers in radioembolization. Discover key clinical studies, specific case examples, and insights into their own outcomes demonstrating this impact.

Surgical options after treatment

Transplant surgeon Dr. Talia Baker uses TheraSphere with her HCC patients, like Nicole, to aid in achieving surgical candidacy.
