Chemoembolization versus Radiotherapy for Single Hepatocellular Carcinomas of ≤3 cm Unsuitable for Image-Guided Tumor Ablation

Background/Aims: Local ablation therapy (LAT) is primarily recommended for solitary inoperable hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) of ≤3 cm in diameter. However, only two-thirds of uninodular small HCCs are suitable for LAT, and the second-best treatment option for managing these nodules is unclear. We...
