Radiation Lobectomy Techniques & Downstaging for HCC
How can targeted liver radiation unlock surgical or transplant options for tough hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cases? In this episode of the BackTable 2026 HCC Creator Weekend™, host Dr. Kavi Krishnasamy is joined by interventional radiologists Dr. Beau Toskich and Dr. Chris Malone to explore how downstaging and radiation lobectomy with Y90 are creating new surgical and transplant opportunities for patients with limited future liver remnants. They discuss Y90’s role as a “test of time” for tumor biology, strategies to prevent post-hepatectomy liver failure, and the ongoing challenge of recurrence even after R0 resection in cirrhotic livers.
This podcast is supported by an educational grant from Sirtex and Boston Scientific.
