Radiopaque fully degradable nanocomposites for coronary stents

Bioresorbable scaffolds (BRS) were introduced to overcome limitations of current metallic drug-eluting stents and poly-L-lactide (PLLA) has been used in the fabrication of BRS due to its biodegradability and biocompatibility. However, such polymers have weaker mechanical properties as compared to me...
