Onyx™ Liquid Embolic System

Designed to provide complete filling and distal penetration, Onyx™ liquid embolic system (LES) is a pre-mixed, radiopaque, injectable embolic fluid made of EVOH (ethylene vinyl-alcohol copolymer), DMSO (dimethyl-sulfoxide) and TA (micronized tantalum powder).

Overview

The Onyx™ confidence - performance you can trust1

During embolization with the Onyx™ system, the DMSO solvent dissipates into the blood and interstitial fluids, causing the EVOH copolymer and suspended tantalum to precipitate in situ into a spongy, coherent substance. The Onyx™ liquid embolic system begins to form a skin and solidifies over time from the outside to the inside.

 

Durable2

Flexible Onyx™ cast creates a durable embolization for neurovascular lesions.

Control2

Cohesive behavior provides a controlled and time-flexible, distal or nidal Onyx™ LES injection.

Visibility2

Provides live feedback of the embolic fill and trajectory, enabling visibility of Onyx™ LES injection under fluoroscopy.

 

Onyx™LES is available in several viscosities

The numerical term of Onyx™ LES describes its relative viscosity:

  • Onyx™18: liquid embolic system for maximum penetration
  • Onyx™34: liquid embolic system for high-flow occlusion 
     

Delivering Onyx™ LES Flow directed catheters

The Marathon™ and Apollo™ flow directed catheter have been expressly designed to complement and enhance embolization with Onyx™. These synergistic tools help you journey to more tortuous locations, embolize more challenging lesions and return with confidence.
