Innovation in catheter design for intra-arterial liver cancer treatments results in favorable particle-fluid dynamics

BACKGROUND: Liver tumors are increasingly treated with radioembolization. Here, we present first evidence of catheter design effect on particle-fluid dynamics and downstream branch targeting during microsphere administrations. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 7 experiments were performed in a bench...
