Effects of helical centerline stent vs. straight stent placement on blood flow velocity

As an approach to maintain patency in femoropopliteal stenting, a helical stent configuration was proposed, which showed improved patency in clinical trials. However, the effects of helical stent placement on the flow have not been quantitatively analyzed. The purpose of this study was to estimate f...
