Embolization with microparticles

From Beacon

Embolization with microparticles is a minimally invasive procedure used to block blood flow to specific areas of the body, typically to treat tumours, aneurysms, or abnormal blood vessels. During this procedure, a catheter is guided through the blood vessels to the targeted site, where tiny microparticles are then released to obstruct the blood flow. This targeted approach reduces the size of tumours, alleviates symptoms, and prevents further growth or bleeding of abnormal vessels. Embolization with microparticles offers a precise and effective treatment with shorter recovery times, less pain, and fewer risks compared to traditional surgery, enhancing patient outcomes and quality of life.
