Lava liquid embolizing agent is used to treat a wide range of medical conditions including brain aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations, and tumors. The product is made up of ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVOH) dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and tantalum powder. This innovative product offers several advantages over other embolization agents. Firstly, its unique formulation and delivery system allow it to harden quickly, which means it can plug blood vessels and prevent blood flow to affected areas quickly, reducing the risk of hemorrhages and other complications. Additionally, Lava can be used in complex anatomical structures with challenging geometries and is compatible with a wide variety of delivery microcatheters. One of the key benefits of LAVA is its stability, which ensures that it does not dissolve or wash away over time. This means that it can provide long-term occlusion of blood vessels without the need for repeated treatments. Furthermore, the product is radiopaque, which makes it easy for surgeons to visualize and monitor its placement during procedures.
Features&Advantages
1. It has excellent radiopacity, which makes it easy to visualize during the embolization procedure. This is important because it allows the interventional radiologist to monitor the injection of the embolic agent and ensure that it is placed in the right location. The good radiopacity also helps in follow-up imaging, making it easier for clinicians to assess the efficacy of the embolization.
2. it has non-adhesive nature. Unlike other embolic agents, Lava does not stick to the catheter or the vessel wall, making it easier to control the injection and achieve a more uniform distribution of the embolic agent. The non-adhesive nature of Lava also reduces the risk of non-target embolization, which is a serious complication that can occur with some other embolic agents.
3. It is formulated to be injected in a slow, controlled manner, which allows it to spread evenly and fill even the most complex vascular structures. This makes it especially useful in the treatment of cerebral arteriovenous malformations, which often have a complex, tangled network of blood vessels.
4. Lava has a comprehensive models to meet different need.

FAQ
Q1. What is Lava's Liquid Embolizing Agent?
A1. Lava's Liquid Embolizing Agent is a liquid polymer-based embolic agent that is used to treat vascular malformations in the body. The product is used to fill and block the affected blood vessels to prevent abnormal blood flow to the affected area.
Q2. How does Lava's Liquid Embolizing Agent work?
A2. Lava's Liquid Embolizing Agent works by penetrating the affected blood vessels and forms a stable solid mass of polymer inside the vessel. This solid mass blocks the blood flow, which can prevent the vascular malformation from growing or causing other issues.
Q3. Is Lava's Liquid Embolizing Agent safe?
A3. Lava's Liquid Embolizing Agent has been extensively researched and tested in clinical trials, which have demonstrated that it is a safe and effective product to use. Moreover, doctors and healthcare professionals that have used Lava's Liquid Embolizing Agent have reported positive results and outcomes in their patients.
