Fig. 3B —Graphs show stent-related relative attenuation or signal intensity in vessel phantoms without stenosis. 1 = nitinol with 1.7-mm² mesh size and 165-µm strut thickness (Expander, Bolton Medical), 2 = nitinol with 3-mm² mesh size and 170-µm strut thickness (Hemobahn, Prograft Medical), 3 = nitinol with 4.5-mm² mesh size and 245-µm strut thickness (SelfX, Abbott Laboratories), 4 = nitinol with 2-mm² mesh size and 200-µm strut thickness (SMART, Cordis), 5 = nitinol with 15-mm² mesh size and 235-µm strut thickness (Symphony, Boston Scientific), 6 = cobalt alloy with 1.7-mm² mesh size and 195-µm strut thickness (Wallstent, Boston Scientific). Graph shows results for MR angiography of 95% stenosis.
