PURPOSE: Delivery of radiation therapy (RT) to unresectable liver tumors is sometimes limited by proximity of radiosensitive bowel. We sought to determine if biological mesh spacers (BMS) could be used in this situation. METHODS AND MATERIALS: BMS composed of acellular human dermis were placed via a...
