conducted animal studies on
Coracto SDS (Stent Delivery System) and announced the results at EuroPCR 2009. The study conducted by Dr. Virmani used confocal, scanning electron and light microscopy to examine reendothelialization and inflammation at 14 and 28 days of Coracto, a rapamycin-eluting stent, versus, a sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) and an everolimus-eluting stent (EES) and a bare metal stent (Constant) as a control in a healthy rabbit iliac model.

As expected, the bare metal stent showed the greatest endothelial coverage.
