Abstract
Radiopaque embolization microspheres are visualized during transcatheter embolization with routine intraprocedural fluoroscopy and CT. These radiopaque microspheres provided the three-dimensional spatial distribution of embolic material inside target organs during the procedure, and therefore can provide real-time intraprocedural feedback for the interventional radiologist. These microspheres may be useful for demonstrating the influence of material and technical variability in transcatheter embolization in addition to providing intraprocedural identification of tissue at risk of undertreatment.
