Oligometastatic disease represents a clinical and anatomical manifestation between
localised and polymetastatic disease. In prostate cancer, as with other cancers, recognition …

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) is currently the most conventional and effective
method for clinically treating cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis. Stent …

Intravascular stents of various designs are currently in use to restore patency in
atherosclerotic coronary arteries and it has been found that different stents have different in …

The introduction of drug-eluting stents (DES) has reduced the occurrence of restenosis in
coronary arteries. However, restenosis remains a problem in stented coronary bifurcations …

INTRODUCTION: Minimally invasive treatment approaches, like the implantation of
percutaneous stents, are becoming more popular every day for the treatment of intracranial …

Coronary restenosis after angioplasty has been reduced by stenting procedure, but in-stent
restenosis (ISR) has not been eliminated yet, especially in tortuous vessels. In this paper, we …

Balloon-expandable and self-expandable stents are the two types of coronary stents
available. Basically, they differ in the modality of expansion. The present study analyses the …

Computational simulations of stenting procedures in idealized geometries can only provide
general guidelines and their use in the patient-specific planning of percutaneous treatments …

Coronary stenting is the most common form of interventional treatment for symptomatic
coronary artery disease. In-stent restenosis following bare metal stent (BMS) placement is …

The process of restenosis after a stenting procedure is related to local biomechanical
environment. Arterial wall stresses caused by the interaction of the stent with the vascular …
