After the procedure, patients typically stay in the hospital for a short period for observation and management of any immediate side effects. Pain management and monitoring of liver function are key components of post-procedure care. Follow-up imaging studies, such as CT or MRI scans, are necessary to assess the response of the tumor to the treatment and to determine if additional treatments are needed. Patients may require multiple sessions of chemoembolization depending on the tumor's response and overall liver function.
