Selective internal radiation therapy for primary hepatocellular carcinoma (IPG460)
Evidence-based recommendations on selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) for primary hepatocellular carcinoma. This involves infusion of microspheres loaded with yttrium-90, which aims to deliver radiation directly into the tumour, minimising the risk of radiation damage to healthy surrounding tissues.

Evidence-based recommendations on photochemical corneal cross linkage using riboflavin and ultraviolet A for keratoconus. This involves using special eye drops and exposing the eye ultraviolet light, with the aim to strengthen the cornea.
Ultrasound‑enhanced, catheter‑directed thrombolysis for deep vein thrombosis (IPG523)
Evidence-based recommendations on ultrasound enhanced catheter-directed thrombolysis for deep vein thrombosis. This involves using ultrasound waves and a drug to break up the clot.
Ultrasound‑enhanced, catheter‑directed thrombolysis for pulmonary embolism (IPG524)
Evidence-based recommendations on ultrasound enhanced catheter-directed thrombolysis for pulmonary embolism. This involves using ultrasound waves and a drug to break up the clot.
Minimally invasive video‑assisted parathyroidectomy (IPG501)
Evidence-based recommendations on minimally invasive video-assisted parathyroidectomy. This involves inserting surgical instruments through a small cut (keyhole surgery) to find and remove any abnormal glands.
Evidence-based recommendations on single incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This involves removing the gallbladder through a small cut, most often below the bellly button.
Evidence-based recommendations on endoscopic radiofrequency ablation for Barrett’s oesophagus with low-grade dysplasia or no dysplasia. This involves using radiofrequency (heat) energy to destroy the abnormal cells and promote the growth of healthy normal cells.
Evidence-based recommendations on low energy contact X-ray brachytherapy (the Papillon technique) for early stage rectal cancer. This involves inserting an X-ray tube through the anus and placing it in close contact with the tumour to kill cancer cells and reduce the size of the tumour.
Epidermal radiotherapy using rhenium-188 paste for non-melanoma skin cancer (IPG784)
Evidence-based recommendations on epidermal radiotherapy using rhenium-188 paste for non-melanoma skin cancer. This involves radioactive paste being spread on foil over the top of the cancer, to destroy the cancer cells.
