title: Endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms with matrix coils: a preliminary study of immediate post-treatment results.
abstract: A new, coated bioactive coil has been developed to improve the long-term results of endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms. The purpose of this preliminary study was to assess the feasibility and safety of selective embolization of intracranial aneurysms with Matrix coils in 20 consecutive patients.
