LavaTM Liquid Embolic Agents for Interventional Embolization are a type of material used in interventional radiology procedures to occlude blood vessels. Liquid Embolic Agents are typically composed of a mixture of polymers and solvents that solidify after being injected into the target vessel, blocking blood flow and causing embolization.
Lava- 12 Liquid Embolic Agents for Interventional Embolization
One common type of LavaTM Liquid Embolic Agent For Interventional Embolization is ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVOH). EVOH is a non-adhesive polymer that is biocompatible and non-toxic, making it safe for use in the body. When injected into a vessel, EVOH solidifies and creates a non-adhesive plug that blocks blood flow. LavaTM offer several advantages over other embolic agents, such as particles or coils. For example, LEAs can be injected through smaller microcatheters, allowing for greater precision and control during the procedure. Additionally, LEAs are less likely to cause tissue damage or inflammation, which can be a significant concern with other embolic agents.
Features & Advantages
1.It was made of non-adhesive material and used the latest technology of EVOH co-polymer.
2.With a lower viscosity, Lava 12 is more fluid than the standard formula to allow deeper penetration into the nidus and to reach distal microvessels and inject through small feeders.
3.Stable and controlled delivery to reach target embolism.
4.The micronized grain size of Tantalum powder is more slowly precipitation and more clearly radiography than competitors.
