Trans-Arterial Stem Cell Injection (TASI) : The Role of Interventional Radiology in Regenerative Medicine

Regenerative medicine is taking a step forward in treating multiple diseases. The possibility of renewing damaged tissues with stem cells has become a topic of interest in recent decades. Still a relatively new research topic, many issues in this discipline are being addressed, from cell culturing to the study of different graft materials, and, moreover, cell delivery. For instance, direct intravenous injection has a big downfall regarding its lack of precision and poorly targeted treatment. Trans-arterial and direct percutaneous infusion to the aimed tissue/organ are both considered ideal for reaching the desired region but require image guidance to be performed safely and precisely. In this context, interventional radiology becomes pivotal for providing different cell delivery possibilities in every case. In this review, we analyze different basic stem cell therapy concepts and the current and future role of interventional radiology with a focus on trans-arterial delivery.
