Abstract

Problems of the cost and quality of endovascular equipment with an emphasis on coils, stent-retrievers and liquid embolic agents according to the International survey on neuroradiological interventional and therapeutic devices and materials were analyzed. The cost of the endovascular equipment is often the limiting factor which greatly slows the spread of interventional radiology, and at the same time, the existing technical problems that manufacturers report requires detailed analysis and study to avoid adverse effects.
