FIGURE 1.

CT slices showing a mRECIST partial response to idarubicin-loaded drug-eluting microspheres (DEMIDA) - transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in the VIII. segment of cirrhotic liver. (A) Baseline CT showing multifocal hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The diameter of the largest tumour was 38 mm; (B) Only minimally enhancing largest target lesion at the first treatment response evaluation, the diameter of viable lesion was 4 mm.
