Abstract

Transarterial chemoembolization therapy is a method of administrating localized chemotherapy directly into a liver tumor. PET/MR imaging can help evaluate for residual metabolic activity and assessment of liver lesions post embolization. Inadvertent embolization of the cystic artery can result in chemical cholecystitis.
