Question unclear: You may have spelled things incorrectly. Not sure what "mace" is, and whether you are asking about immobilization or embolization. Ask your question again after you have clarified it and be more explicit. Thanks.

Chemoembolization?: Tace - transcatheter arterial chemoembolization is a minimally invasive procedure done by interventional radiologist (physician). It involves administration of chemotherapy directly to the liver tumor via a catheter. With this technique, the chemotherapy targets the tumor while sparing the patient many side effects of traditional chemotherapy that is given to the whole body.
