Abstract: Chemotherapy is insufficient to treat macroscopic vascular invasion (MVI) of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We retrospectively investigated the treatment outcomes of patients who underwent three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) for HCC MVI and analyzed prognostic factors by… read more here.
