Investigating the Equivalent Plastic Strain in a Variable Ring Length and Strut Width Thin-Strut Bioresorbable Scaffold

Therefore, the narrow strut designs investigated herein, are likely to offer optimal performance and potentially better patient outcomes. Further work should address the material modelling of next generation polymeric BRS to more accurately capture their mechanical behaviour. Observation of the in-vitro testing indicates that the ArterioSorb[Formula: see text] BRS can tolerate greater levels of over expansion than anticipated.
