The cost of chemoembolization of the liver in Germany typically ranges from $18,000 to $27,000. Prices vary depending on the clinic, the interventional radiologist’s experience, tumor size and location, and the number of treatment sessions needed. In the United States, the average cost is $35,000 (per NCCN). This means chemoembolization in Germany is about 36% less expensive than in the U.S.
German clinics generally include pre-procedure imaging (CT or MRI), the chemoembolization procedure itself, all medications and embolic agents, anesthesia, a short hospital stay (1–3 days), and follow-up imaging. In the U.S., hospital, radiologist, drugs, and post-procedure care are often billed separately. Always confirm what’s included at your chosen clinic.
