Modeling of the dynamics of vascular embolization by using porous media for the design of injection robots of embolic agents.

Embolization is the prevailing therapy for tumor-targeting, anti-organ hyperfunction, and hemostasis. However, the injection of embolic agents largely depends on the experiences of doctors as assisted by X-ray, which will negate the health of the doctor. To avail embolization therapy feasible even in hospitals without experienced doctors and to prevent the doctors from exposion to X-ray, robotizat...
