Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how well dynamic contrast-enhanced computed tomography (DCE-CT) can evaluate the response of neuroendocrine liver metastases (NELM) to radiation treatment combined with everolimus.
- Fourteen patients received everolimus prior, during, and post-radiation, with DCE-CT scans taken at three different times to assess changes in tumor perfusion parameters (blood flow, blood volume, permeability).
- Results indicated that blood volume decreased significantly after radiation treatment, and DCE-CT may provide a more effective way to evaluate response in patients with NELM compared to standard methods.
Introduction: Liver metastases are common in patients with neuroendocrine neoplasms. The role of stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) is not well understood in this population.
Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of SABR in treating well-differentiated neuroendocrine liver metastases (WD-NELM).
