embolization devices

Embolization devices are medical tools used to intentionally block abnormal or problematic blood flow in the body, often to treat conditions like tumors or bleeding. They include tiny coils, plugs, or beads that are inserted into blood vessels through a catheter. Once in place, these devices promote clotting or physically block the vessel, reducing or stopping blood flow to the targeted area. This minimally invasive procedure helps control bleeding or shrink tumors by cutting off their blood supply, often avoiding the need for open surgery.
