This form is used to request an opinion on percutaneous or endovascular treatment of a liver tumour: hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer in cirrhosis), liver metastases (colorectal or other), cholangiocarcinoma, nodule to characterise. Available techniques are percutaneous ablation (radiofrequency, microwave, cryoablation, electroporation), chemoembolisation (TACE), Y90 radioembolisation and portal vein embolisation. The file is reviewed together with the images: the download link to the CT or MRI images is the most useful item.
So that your file can be reviewed quickly:
- share the CT or MRI through a download link (CD or link from your imaging centre, or WeTransfer / SwissTransfer in link mode), not as an attachment;
- attach the imaging report and, if possible, the multidisciplinary tumour board (MDT) report or the letter from your oncologist, hepatologist or surgeon;
- for liver cancer in cirrhosis: recent liver tests (bilirubin, albumin, INR, platelets) and alpha-fetoprotein.
