Background The aim of this study was to investigate the safety and efficacy of selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) with 90 Y resin microspheres for the treatment of Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). A total of 23 SIRT procedures from 18 ICC subjects were analysed to determine a lesion-b...
