| Research Abstract |
We revealed that chemically durable porous yttrium oxide microparticles 500 μm in diameter or yttrium phosphate microspheres 25 μm in diameter can be obtained by gelatin suspension method. Also, we found that hollow ceramic microspheres containing large amount of yttrium and phosphorus 30 μm in diameter can be obtained by spray-dry method. It is believed that the present microspheres are useful for intra-arterial multiple treatment of deep-seated cancer.
