摘要
To experimentally investigate the effects of microsphere density and diameter on distal penetration.A surrogate hepatic arterial system was developed to replicate the hemodynamics (pressures, flow rates, pulsatile flow characteristics) and anatomic geometry (vessel diameters) proximal and distal to the microsphere injection point. A planar tumor model, placed distal to the injection point, allowed visualization of deposited microspheres. Bland resin and glass microspheres, with physical characteristics approximating the characteristics of commercially available products, were injected into the surrogate system. Microsphere type, injection rate, systemic flow rate, and tumor model inclination were varied among tests (glass, n = 7; resin, n = 6) with replicates for 2 conditions. After injection, 254 micrographs were obtained at previously defined locations throughout the tumor model to document microsphere distributions. Average microsphere distributions and mass measurements of microspheres collected at the tumor outlet were analyzed to quantify distal penetration for each case.Across all test conditions, average penetration depths of resin microspheres were higher compared with glass microspheres (45.1 cm ± 11.8 vs 22.3 cm ± 9.9). The analysis of variance indicated that the observed difference between microsphere type (glass vs resin) was significant (P = .005, df = 1,2). The observed distance means did not differ significantly across flow rate or inclination angle.Penetration depths of resin microspheres were significantly higher than penetration depths of glass microspheres in the surrogate hepatic arterial system.
