CIRSE
Regarding the treatment of HCC what is TACE?

What is TEVAR?
IN CASE OF ANEURISM: The TEVAR procedure involves the placement of a covered stent (a metal mesh tube with a layer of fabric) into the weakened area of the artery. This provides a route for the blood to flow without pooling in the bulge.

Regarding head tumor, when is MRI used?
When the disease goes intracranially (from scalpes to dura/brain)
When is CT most commonly used? (regarding head and neck)
Which plane and why?
