From Which Medical Device
The biopearl from terumo is said to be the worlds first resorbable drug eluting microsphere.
The idea is to deliver the drug to the TACE target lesion then allow gradual restoration of blood flow to allow repeated lesion access.
They are compatible with doxorubicin, epirubicin and idarubicin.
They are 200um, range 150-350um.
