Drug-Eluting Stent Strut Distribution: A Comparison between Cypher‚Ñ¢ and Taxus¬Æ by Optical Coherence Tomography

08/01/2008

Recent studies have shown that the use of drug-eluting stents (DES) to deliver antiproliferative agents directly to the vessel wall dramatically reduces the rate of restenosis. However, differences among stent designs, drug delivery vehicles,...
