3 Fig. 2 Effect of introducing an incremental-dose infusion of dextran therapy on the rate of embolization (five patients). Dextran was started at time 0. Rate of embolization in the hour preceding starting the dextran infusion is also given for comparison. *In one patient, rate of embolization increased after starting dextran infusion, necessitating further increase in dose. Thereafter, rate of embolization diminished.
