How long can SpaceOAR last?

I attended a webinar in 2022 listening to a speaker from Boston Scientific. He showed this (attached) 2T-MRI image of SpaceOAR - before injection, at 3 months after injection - and 6 months later after it had liquified and is absorbed.

(I started my proton radiation treatments 18 days after the SpaceOAR Vue was injected.)

Thanks for sharing the graphic. I’m having my SpaceOAR implanted in 5 days and will start external beam radiation 18 days after but was wondering about how long it would’ve around.
