Hepatic artery embolization flow can be occluded by injecting various items, such as plastic particles, glue, metal coils, foam, or by deploying a balloon.

Compared with systemic chemotherapy, a higher proportion of the chemotherapy agents is (in theory) delivered to the lesions in the liver. Hepatic artery chemoembolization (HACE), sometimes called transarterial chemoembolization (TACE), combines hepatic artery embolization with hepatic artery chemo infusion. In one method, embospheres bound with chemotherapy agents injected into
