This first-of-its-kind drug-device therapy, known as Natural Vascular Scaffolding (AlucentNVS), is designed to provide a more natural and effective way of establishing and maintaining arterial patency in the lower extremities compared with existing treatments such as stents and traditional drug-coated balloons; essentially accomplishing “stenting without a ...
The new EluNIR stent system includes a stent with a low metal footprint that comprises struts of variable width: ultra-narrow struts having a width of 40µm and narrow supportive struts having a width of 72µm. ...

Although many nitinol applications are not well-known to the public, some applications are quite routine and familiar. The spectacle frame made of Nitinol severely deformed and then returned to normal. Similarly, a few years ago, when mobile phone antennas were made of Nitinol, they could bend without breaking or permanently bending. Another superelastic application of Nitinol is for orthodontic ...
Vesper Medical will further expand Philips’ portfolio of diagnostic and therapeutic devices with an advanced venous stent portfolio for the treatment of deep venous disease. The transaction, which is subject to customary closing conditions, is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2022. ...
Their hope is to ultimately make the well-known ‘stent,’ currently used to maintain diseased arteries and veins open, obsolete. Stents can sometimes trigger an inflammatory response leading to more build-up in the artery that blocks flow, compromising their lasting impact. ...
Therefore, tantalum plate is widely used in chemical reaction equipment such as the coating of reactor, valves, heat exchangers, protection systems and water tanks. Tantalum plate can also be used for the production of corrosion-resistant tantalum fasteners such as screws, nuts, bolts and threaded rods. ...
Several options to treat US exist, including repeated dilatations, stents, and open surgery. A urethral stent is a good, minimally invasive option but has major limitations, such as stent migration, mucosal growth, and incontinence, especially for bladder-neck strictures. ...
Cardio-vascular diseases are the number one killer in the world. As an alternative to common treatment methods the installation of specific-purpose stents into the damaged blood vessel could be used in order to minimise fatal outcomes. Existing technologies of stent manufacturing provide quite good results but are very expensive at the moment. The given paper deals with the design of stents for ...
