LASER DIMPLED STENT FOR PREVENTION OF RESTENOSIS

A dimpled stent design has geometrical characteristics, namely dimple width and depth, which generate dimple site specific turbulence and thrust within the blood flow to reduce or eliminate restenosis. The dimpled stent design is produced by laser processing of the stent material to produce differen...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A dimpled stent design has geometrical characteristics, namely dimple width and depth, which generate dimple site specific turbulence and thrust within the blood flow to reduce or eliminate restenosis. The dimpled stent design is produced by laser processing of the stent material to produce different sizes, which may be predicted by a Multiphysics computational model, placements, and spatial layouts of dimples in the stent.
