| event text = The following information was received via E-mail:
The Director of Radiology at Riverside Medical Center, Kankakee, IL called the Agency [Illinois Emergency Management Agency] to advise that a medical event had occurred during the administration of a Y-90 SIR-Sphere treatment on the morning of June 2, 2015.  35.2 mCi of Y-90 was intended to be delivered to the patient's liver to treat metastatic cancer lesions via the hepatic artery.  However, when the patient was imaged immediately following the treatment, the kidney was observed as the organ which had received the dose with no material evident in the liver.  It was determined that the infusion catheter was improperly placed.  Instead of placement in the patient's hepatic artery, the renal artery was the infusion site.  This was the facility's first patient to undergo this treatment modality.  As a result, the manufacturer's proctor was present in addition to the treatment team members which included the radiologist, the radiation safety officer, the nuclear medicine technologist as well as others.
