  • Title: Precipitating hydrophobic injectable liquid embolization of intracranial vascular shunts: initial experience and technical note.
    Author: Varadharajan S, Ramalingaiah AH, Saini J, Gupta AK, Devi BI, Acharya UV.
    Journal: J Neurosurg; 2018 Nov 01; 129(5):1217-1222. PubMed ID: 29192863.
    Abstract:
    Precipitating hydrophobic injectable liquid is a new liquid embolic agent used mainly for intracranial neurointervention. The agent is ready to use (no shaking is required), since iodine, the radiopaque material, is covalently bonded into the compound. Additionally, due to the absence of tantalum, minimal artifacts are seen on postprocedure follow-up CT scans, and the agent penetrates into vessels smaller than 10 µm. The authors report their initial experience with the use of this agent in neurovascular intervention.
