This study shows that a stent designed to better accommodate limb-flexion deformation reduces inflammation and neointimal hyperplasia compared to a standard stent.

This study characterizes the biomechanical properties of porcine lower limb arteries to evaluate their suitability as preclinical models for peripheral vascular devices.

This study determines Nitinol material properties of 11 peripheral stents using inverse computational analysis and finds significant variation in elasticity and transformation stresses across devices.

This study characterizes luminal gains and damage after balloon angioplasty in human femoropopliteal arteries with varying calcium burdens using imaging, histology, and mechanical testing.
