A tissue engineering scaffold for cell, tissue or organ growth comprises a biocompatible porous polyurethane cellular material comprising a plurality of substantially spherical voids of diameter from 20 to 300 microns, preferably 80 to 200 microns, interconnected by generally elliptically shaped pores. The cellular material has a void content of from 85% to 98% and a surface area to volume of from 5 to 400 mm/mm, ideally from 20 to 80 mm/mm.

An embolic protection system comprises an embolic protection filterhaving a collapsed delivery configuration and an expanded deployed configuration. The filteris housed in the collapsed configuration in a reception space of a delivery catheter. The delivery cathetercontaining the filteris housed in a sealed sterile pouch. The filtermay be coated with a non-thrombogenic coating and an adhesion preventersuch as a silicon gel is used to substantially prevent adhesion of adjacent folds of the filterwhen the filter is in the collapsed configuration in the delivery catheter
