Abstract
Described herein are compositions comprising, a polymer; a non-physiological solution; and a visualization agent; wherein the polymer is soluble in the non-physiological solution and insoluble at physiological conditions. Methods of preparing the compositions are disclosed as well as methods of using these compositions to treat vascular conditions.
Claims11
A composition comprising:
- 1) a biocompatible polymer formed from:
- a) hydroxyethylmethacrylate monomers, or vinyl alcohol monomers, or hydroxyethylmethacrylate monomers and vinyl alcohol monomers;
- and
- b) aromatic amine monomers;
- 2) a solvent;
- and
- 3) a visualization agent;
