Evaluation of Different Calibrated Spherical Polyvinyl Alcohol Microspheres in Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization: VX2 Tumor Model in Rabbit Liver

After TACE in a rabbit model of liver cancer, testing of three different types of spherical PVA microspheres with varying degrees of porosity and compressibility showed no significant differences in the plasma doxorubicin release pattern and tumor doxorubicin uptake.
