Figure 4. Tumor objective response to cTACE or TILA-TACE according to EASL criteria.

Figure 4.

Twenty patients were randomly assigned to treatment of cTACE or TILA-TACE. (A) Tumor response rate to cTACE and representative MRI images of tumor before and after treatment. 10 patients were treated with cTACE. (B) Tumor response rate to TILA-TACE and representative MRI image of tumor before and after treatment. 10 patients were treated with TILA-TACE. (C) The pattern of tumor response to TILA-TACE and cTACE. The difference between 2 groups was statistically significant (p=0.003), as assessed using proportional odds model. CR, complete necrosis; PR, viable tumor volume less than 50% of the viable tumor volume before treatment; SD, viable tumor volume larger than 50% of the viable tumor volume before treatment; PD, viable tumor volume larger than 100% after treatment.
