Temperature-induced configuration changes in hydrogel-coated coils and their relevance in embolization procedures

Abstract Background The present study attempted to demonstrate how the configuration of hydrogel-coated coils is influenced by different temperature exposures. Thirty detachable hydrogel-coated coils were evaluated in an in vitro water immersion test under five different temperature ranges (22.6 °C,...
