Neutron Activated Samarium-153 Microparticles for Transarterial Radioembolization of Liver Tumour with Post-Procedure Imaging Capabilities

INTRODUCTION: Samarium-153 ((153)Sm) styrene divinylbenzene microparticles were developed as a surrogate for Yttrium-90 ((90)Y) microspheres in liver radioembolization therapy. Unlike the pure beta emitter (90)Y, (153)Sm possess both therapeutic beta and diagnostic gamma radiations, making it possib...
