TY - JOUR AU1 - DUDA, STEPHAN H. AB - Overall, the ideal stent—having high hoop strength, a low profile, a good pushability, and a good radiopacity—still does not exist. However, by changing strut design (from rectangular to arch-like struts) and by inserting articulations, hoop strength and pushability can be improved without reducing radiopacity.
