Oncology Days | Day 2 | Liver Cancer Treatment
The treatment of patients with liver cancer requires a careful balance of adequate oncologic control and the preservation of both liver function and performance status. Surgery is considered the most effective chance at cure in this patient group, however, most patients are not eligible. The emerging field of interventional oncology offers the patient treatment options for almost all stages of the disease, all minimal invasive, all image-guided. In this session, we will present how innovative image guidance can offer personalized cancer care.
