Overview
LC Bead LUMI is a directly image-able, inherently radiopaque embolic agent composed of sulfonate-modified polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogel microbeads with covalently bound iodine (~260 mg I/ml). Developed by BTG (now Boston Scientific), it is designed for the transarterial embolization (TAE) of hypervascular liver tumors, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and neuroendocrine tumors. The beads provide mechanical occlusion of the blood vessels supplying the tumor, while their radiopacity allows for real-time feedback and geographic localization during the procedure using fluoroscopy, digital subtraction angiography (DSA), and cone-beam CT (CBCT). This visibility assists interventional radiologists in ensuring complete coverage of the target lesion and identifying potential areas of under-treatment.
