| Research Abstract |
Originally invented nonwoven fabric polyglycolic acid (PGA) spacer was tested by physical experiment and animal experiments. The PGA spacer exhibits excellent properties related to bio-absorbability, bio-compatibility, and thickness retention. Adhesion of the PGA spacer was minimum and blood test indicated that there was no inflammatory reaction. The retension of the PGA spacer depends upon its density. These findings should be more intensively investigated for the clinical application. The PGA spacer will be a useful method for particle therapy without damaging adjacent organs.
