Interventional Radiology (IR) is a fast growing and advancing radiology modality. With that growth comes new and innovative procedures‚ such as chemoembolization. With the introduction of chemoembolization for the treatment of‚ primarily‚ liver tumors‚ a question emerges; which radiologic modality is better: chemoembolization or traditional radiation therapy? While both chemoembolization and traditional radiation therapy have their benefits and obstacles‚ will chemoembolization be more effective

specific‚ the study of radiology. Radiology is the process of working and viewing inside the human body without breaking the skin. By using radiant energy‚ which may take the form of x-rays or other types of radiation‚ we are able to diagnose and treat many diseases and injuries. Both diagnostic and therapeutic radiology involve the use of ionizing radiation (Beta‚ Alpha‚ Gamma‚ and x-rays)‚ with the exception of the MRI‚ which uses a magnetic field rather than radiation.

Multivariate analysis of variance Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) is a generalized form of univariate analysis of variance (ANOVA). It is used when there are two or more dependent variables. It helps to answer : 1. do changes in the independent variable(s) have significant effects on the dependent variables; 2. what are the interactions among the dependent variables and 3. among the independent variables.[1] Where sums of squares appear in univariate analysis of variance‚ in multivariate
