Research Notes on Yttrium 90 and Liver Cancer
Yttrium-90 delivers direct radiation to tumors in the liver using tiny beads (intrahepatic microspheres) which measure only one third of the diameter of a strand of human hair. This treatment is nontoxic which makes it ideal for people who suffer from cirrhosis or chronic hepatitis. There is also a lower amount of side effects with yttrium-90 than there is with chemotherapy or traditional radiation.
