Prevention of Microsphere Blockage in Catheter Tubes Using Convex Air Bubbles

This paper presents a novel method to prevent blockages by embolic microspheres in catheter channels by using convex air bubbles attached to the channels’ inner wall surface. The clogging by microspheres can occur by the arching of the microspheres in the catheter. A few studies have been done on re...
