Impact of the Balloon Inflation Time and Pattern on the Coronary Stent Expansion

Figure 6

Comparison of in-stent diameter and CSA of the 0 to 30 second one-step deploying time in a one-layer stent to the diameter and CSA in double layer segments with 0 to 30 second one-step deploying time in the nominal pressure group and the RBP group by IVUS and OCT. Abbreviations: CSA: cross-section area; IVUS: intravascular ultrasonography; NP: nominal pressure; OCT: optical coherence tomography; RBP: rated burst pressure.
