Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with radical dose achieved similar results with radiofrequency ablation (RF) and radical surgery, according to previous studies. For tumors near great blood vessels or with a diameter more than 2cm, SBRT performs even better than RF. In current clinical practice of SBRT for small HCC, registration is achieved by planting metal markers near the tumor, which has several disadvantages: 1. the operation is invasive, increase the risk of bleeding in patients with cirrhosis; 2. the operation is of no therapeutic value; 3. metal markers can only be planted outside the tumor to avoid transplantation, which compromises the accuracy of registration via CBCT. This study aims to adopt a new method of registration, transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) and lipiodol marking, to analyze the recognition and clarity of lipiodol on CBCT images, set-up errors and treatment efficacy. Therefore to provide data to support TACE and lipiodol marking over metal marker planting.
