HIGH-FREQUENCY RESONANT STENTS FOR NON-INVASIVE RESTENOSIS MONITORING

摘要

The invention relates to a high-frequency resonant stent, having at least one modulation element designed as a HF energy store, integrated in the stent wire structure and engaging in the HF resonator, wherein said modulation element changes the energy storage capability thereof upon charging with a magnetic field. The invention further relates to a method for evaluating a stenosis in such a stent.
