Nexsphere™
Nexsphere™ is a yellow powder, made of 100% hydrophilic gelatin. It is used to make a suspension by mixing a contrast agent and physiological saline. The indications are hepatic artery chemoembolization, uterine artery embolization, prostate artery embolization, and treatment of various hemorrhagic diseases. It physically embolizes blood vessels and is decomposed within 4-8 weeks after intravascular injection.
