Abstract
In this review, papers have been selected with the object of informing the reader about research developed by interventional neuroradiologists to improve the quality of materials, to further knowledge of their performance and use, to search for new items, and to follow-up and check therapeutic results. Animal models, in-vitro models, and special applications of technical possibilities are described and discussed with interesting and promising results.
