Official wording

Reason: Drug Elutable Microspheres have a smaller actual average diameter that is not within specification, which may lead to inability to reach the desired treatment location (non-targeted embolization), additional procedure/treatment required, blockage other than target vessel, increased procedure time, incomplete embolization, and/or inability to treat the patient.
