CA 2442327

A stent or other intraluminal medical device having markers formed from housings integral with the stent and marker inserts having a higher radiopacity than the stent provides for more precise placement and post- procedural visualization in a vessel, by increasing the radiopacity of the stent under X-ray fluoroscopy. The housings are formed integral to the stent and the marker inserts are made from a material close in the galvanic series to the stent material and sized to substantially minimize the effect of galvanic corrosion.

L'invention concerne un stent ou un autre dispositif médical intraluminal . Ce dispositif comporte des marqueurs formés à partir de logements solidaires du stent et des inserts de marqueurs présentant une radio-opacité supérieure à celle du stent. Ce système permet de positionner le dispositif avec une précision supérieure et de le visualiser après la procédure d'implantation dans le vaisseau tout en augmentant la radio-opacité du stent lors de fluoroscopie à rayons X. Les logements sont solidaires du stent et les inserts de marqueurs sont fabriqués en un matériau proche, dans la série galvanique, du matériau des stents et sont dimensionnés de manière à minimiser sensiblement l'effet de la corrosion galvanique.
