Synthesis and Characterization of Bismuth Beads for Trans Arterial Chemo Embolization Under Computed Tomography (CT) Guidance

Abstract: Existing microsphere technologies are used as therapy for certain cancers. The therapy is by way of occlusion, when the microspheres are delivered into blood vessels that feed a tumor. The physical dimensions of the microspheres occlude the blood supply and thus, killing the tumor. Some microspheres have also been modified to bind protein,...
