Mixing problems of low flow hepatic artery infusion. Improvement with small caliber double lumen balloon catheters.

abstract：RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES:It is widely believed that down-sizing catheters, and possibly needles, will decrease damage to the entry vessel in the performance of angiography. The purposes of this in vitro experiment are to determine if smaller needles produce less arterial wall damage than larger needles and to assess th...
