Y-90 Treatment at Neolife Medical Center: Targeted Therapy for Liver Tumors

Y-90 treatment, also known as Selective Internal Radiation Therapy (SIRT) or Radioembolization, is a cutting-edge, minimally invasive treatment designed to target liver tumors directly with internal radiation. At Neolife Medical Center, we offer this highly specialized treatment for international patients looking for safe, effective, and personalized options for liver cancer care.

Who Can Benefit from Y-90 Treatment?

Y-90 Radioembolization is ideal for patients with liver tumors that cannot be removed surgically or are not responding well to other treatments. You may benefit from Y-90 treatment if you have:

  • Primary liver cancer (Hepatocellular carcinoma – HCC)
  • Metastatic liver tumors, especially from colorectal cancer or neuroendocrine tumors
  • Tumors not suitable for surgery or ablation
  • Previously tried systemic therapy or chemotherapy with limited results
  • Preserved liver function and good overall health

Y-90 treatment is particularly beneficial for international patients because it’s minimally invasive, highly targeted, and performed on an outpatient or short-stay basis — making it easier to travel for care.

Y-90 Treatment with Neolife Medical Center

At Neolife Medical Center, we perform Y-90 treatment in partnership with experienced interventional radiologists and nuclear medicine experts, following international safety and quality standards. Here’s what makes Neolife a leading center for Y-90 therapy:

  • Precision-Based Planning: We use detailed imaging (CT, MRI, angiography) and advanced dosimetry to determine the exact location, size, and blood supply of your tumor.
  • Minimally Invasive Procedure: Y-90 microspheres (tiny radioactive beads) are delivered directly to the tumor through a catheter inserted into the hepatic artery — allowing high-dose radiation to target cancer cells while sparing healthy tissue.
  • Expert Multidisciplinary Care: Our tumor board includes oncologists, radiologists, and liver specialists who create a tailored treatment plan for each patient.
  • Patient Comfort & Safety: The procedure is typically done under local anesthesia with a short recovery time. Most patients return to normal activity within a few days.
  • International Patient Support: We provide full support in English, Arabic, Russian, and more — ensuring smooth communication, travel coordination, and personalized care.

At Neolife, we’re not just treating cancer — we’re treating people. Our goal is to give international patients access to the latest treatments with warmth, transparency, and trust.
