From: Expandable Mg-based Helical Stent Assessment using Static, Dynamic, and Porcine Ex Vivo Models
SEM images of degraded areas on tested helical stents under flow induced shear stress, 0.68 Pa for 3 days in DMEM (10% FBS, 1% P/S) at 37 °C, 5% CO2. (a–c) Represent the ~58.8% expanded helical stent, (d–f) represent the ~98.5% expanded helical stent. The Table displays the atomic percent (at %) detected in the two positions by EDX.
