Effectiveness of Steerable Microcatheters During Transarterial Chemoembolization for Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Steerable microcatheters were effective in reaching steep or strongly bending branches of the parent or feeding artery in the first TACE cases or neovessels and anastomotic branches in previous TACE cases. Studies with larger sample sizes are warranted to validate the use of steerable microcatheters for effective TACE.
