An intraluminal stent placeable in the lumen of the human body. Includes a generally tubular wall having a filigree-like pattern of interconnected links and open work. The pattern includes nodes that have a central hub and three arms connected to the hub. The arms are arranged circumferentially about the hub and lie adjacent the next adjacent arm of the node in a spiral-like fashion. The arms are connected to other components of the stent which, themselves, may comprise other nodes. The nodes are arranged in repeatable clusters. The disclosure also relates to a technique for making a stent and for mounting a stent on a delivery catheter by which the stent may be crimped onto the catheter in its lowest profile configuration.
