Transarterial bland embolization (TAE, also known as HAE) is a catheter-based tumor treatment of the liver. In this procedure, embolizing agents (e.g., polyvinyl alcohol, gelfoam, acrylic copolymer gelatin particles, embospheres) can be delivered through the tumor's feeding artery in order to completely occlude the tumor's blood supply.
