Therapeutic Embolization of Cranial Tumors [PDF]
, 2011 The aim of embolization is to devascularize the tumor bed by filling intratumoral vascularization as deep as possible into the precapillary level to initiate tumor necrosis, decrease blood loss during surgery and thus make it easier and possibly, more radical, and in tumor of nasal cavity to stop epistaxis (Berenstein, 2004, Valavanis, 2002, Gupta ...

Xylem embolism and bubble formation during freezing suggest complex dynamics of pressure-tension in Betula pendula stems [PDF]
, 2022 Freeze-thaw-induced embolism is a key limiting factor for perennial plants in frost-exposed environments. Gas bubbles are formed during freezing and expand during thawing resulting in xylem embolism. However, when water freezes, its volume increases by 9%, generating local pressures, which can affect the formation of bubbles.

Anatomically aware dual-hop learning for pulmonary embolism detection in CT pulmonary angiograms [PDF]
, 2023 Pulmonary Embolisms (PE) represent a leading cause of cardiovascular death. While medical imaging, through computed tomographic pulmonary angiography (CTPA), represents the gold standard for PE diagnosis, it is still susceptible to misdiagnosis or significant diagnosis delays, which may be fatal for critical cases.

Embolization in an adrenocortical carcinoma as palliative therapy [PDF]
, 1999 Background: With an annual incidence of 0.2% of new cases per 100,000 inhabitants, adrenocortical carcinoma is rare. In advanced tumor only palliative treatment modalities are practicable. Because of scarcity of the tumor, standard treatment has not been
