Preliminary study on modelling, fabrication by photo-chemical etching and in vivo testing of biodegradable magnesium AZ31 stents
Magnesium metal (Mg) is a promising material for stent applications due to its biocompatibility and ability to be resorbed by the body. Manufacturing of stents by laser cutting has become an industry standard. Our alternative approach uses photo-chemical etching to transfer a pattern of the stent on...
