Systems, kits and methods for preparing an injection system and/or treating target lesions with a selective internal radiation therapy which includes a double-barrel syringe loaded with a two-component tissue glue and radioisotope loaded microspheres. The microspheres are loaded into the syringe based on the size of the target location and are administered with a needle or dual-lumen catheter. Dosing regimens for treating breast cancer lesions or surgical beds up to 130 mm in diameter and hepatocellular carcinoma lesions up to 50 mm are included.

The present invention pertains to a novel liposome-based contrast agent that is for suppressing absorption in the reticuloendothelial system and for tumor-specific delivery of a radiolabeled substance. More specifically, the present invention pertains to: a liposome contrast agent containing a lipid and a compound of chemical formula 1, which is a radiolabeled substance, the liposome contrast agent being characterized in that the lipid is composed of (a) cholesterol, (b) 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC), and (c) 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N [methoxy(polyethylene glycol)-2000] (DSPE-PEG2000); and a cancer diagnostic composition containing the liposome contrast agent as an active ingredient. If a liposome system, containing a contrast substance of chemical formula 1 having a unique lipid composition provided by the present invention, is manufactured, the tumor-to-organ uptake ratio of the contrast substance in the reticuloendothelial system increases significantly, thus greatly increasing the tumor diagnostic efficiency of the compound of chemical formula 1.
