Recording and stimulation of brain circuits have been widely used to treat neurological disorders, such as epilepsy1 and Parkinson’s disease2. Current available techniques in this field commonly require invasive surgery potentially entailing both transient ...
Purpose: The morphological and hemodynamic evaluations of neurovascular diseases treated with stents would benefit from noninvasive imaging techniques such as 3D time-of-flight MRI (3D-TOF) and 3D phase contrast MRI (3D-PCMRI). For this purpose, a comprehe ...
Coronary artery disease, caused by the buildup of atherosclerotic plaques in the coronary vessel wall, is one of the leading causes of death in the world. For high-risk patients, coronary artery bypass graft is the preferred treatment. Despite overall exce ...
Low wall shear stress (WSS) increases neointimal hyperplasia (NH) in vein grafts and stents. We studied the causal relationship between WSS and NH formation in stents by locally increasing WSS with a flow divider (Anti-Restenotic Diffuser, Endoart SA) plac ...
The role of shear stress in atherosclerosis has been well documented. However, its role in restenosis was underexposed. In this paper a novel in vivo measuring technique and several of its applications related to restenosis will be described. The technique ...
Neuroprostheses were developed for a variety of applications using unique microfabrication methods. A technology platform that enables novel microelectrode array designs and microfluidic channels is described. Experiments demonstrating the in vivo utility ...
Drug-eluting stents are cardiovascular stents able to release a medical drug after implantation. The medical drug is, in general, aimed at healing the vascular tissues injured after implantation and to prevent restenosis. In spite of their apparent simplic ...
Medical implants delivering drugs are used to ensure efficient medication at body sites, at which the conventional administration of drugs is insufficient. The application of drug-delivery coatings is a beneficial concept for implants exposed to mechanical ...
Drug eluting stents (DES) have been successfully implemented in clinical practice in the treatment against coronary artery disease. Compared to the implantation of bare metal stents, restenosis rates decreased significantly after stenting of DES into coron ...

Coronary artery disease is one of the main causes of death in western countries. The standard of care has become the implantation of a coronary stent, i.e. a small metal-mesh tube reopening the lumen of the artery and maintaining the blood flow to the hear ...
