Abstract
Embolic particles are described comprising a treated polymer particle. The particles are reaction products of a prepolymer solution including at least one polyether macromer and an appropriate monomer. The treated polymer particles can have a first diameter that is smaller than a second diameter, wherein the second diameter is achieved when the treated polymer particle is subjected to a physiological condition. Methods of making and using these polymer particles are also described.
