Treatment algorithm for patients undergoing TACE, according to the recommendation of AISF. The flowchart is valid for any session of TACE. For conventional TACE (cTACE), MRI is preferable since lipiodol uptake causes beam hardening artifacts on CT that mask residual tumor tissue. The response to treatment is assessed by the modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumor (mRECIST). Reproduced with permission from Bolondi N, et al. [4]
