Transarterial chemoembolization using drug eluting beads for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma: Now and future

Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) using doxorubicin-eluting beads (DEBs) have been introduced as a novel device which ensures more sustained and tumor-selective drug delivery and permanent embolization compared to conventional TACE with lipiodol. Studies highlighting the use of TACE with DEBs f...
