Embosphere Size Selection and Dilution Rate in Preoperative Tumor Embolization of the External Carotid Artery System Using a Small-diameter Catheter by Takao HASHIMOTO, Yusuke ARAI, Hirofumi OKADA, Muneaki KIKUNO, Hiroki SAKAMOTO, Kyosuke MATSUNAGA, Michihiro KOHNO

“…For 195 blood vessels in 107 patients (84 with meningioma and 23 with schwannoma), embolization was carried out using a 30-fold dilution of Embosphere 300-500 μm when the provocative test was negative and a 60-fold dilution of Embosphere 500-700 μm when the test was positive or when there was a risk of migration into neurotrophic vessels. Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging after embolization revealed a reduced enhancement effect in 69.1% of cases. …”
