Embolization is a procedure in which emboli are introduced into the body to selectively occlude (i.e. deliberately block) a blood vessel. This is done to prevent blood flow to an area of the body for the purpose of shrinking a tumor or blocking an aneurysm. Procedural embolics include:
- Beads
- Coils
- Foams
- Gels
- Other Blockage Devices
Embolization is commonly used in the following healthcare fields:
- Oncology
- Pulmonology
- Peripheral Vascular
- Neurovascular
