          -  Liver tumors not to exceed 8 cm in greatest axial dimension (800 cc of uninvolved
             liver)

          -  Unresectable tumor above cystic duct

          -  Hepatic lesion in patients for whom surgical resection is not possible or would not

               -  Unilateral atrophy with either contralateral segmental ductal or vascular
                  (hepatic artery, portal vein) involvement

          -  Ascites is allowed if the Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) score is <15[1]

          -  Age > 18 years old

          -  Eastern Clinical Oncology Group performance status 0, 1 or 2 (Appendix 1)

          -  Any evidence of severe or uncontrolled systemic diseases or laboratory finding that in
