ENDOLUMINAL DEVICE AND METHOD FOR FABRICATING SAME

摘要

An endovascular device is configured to elastically expand to a first outer diameter, plastically deform to a second outer diameter, and retain a third outer diameter that is greater than about 90% of the second outer diameter after a device that has been utilized to deform the endovascular device to the second outer diameter has been removed from the endovascular device. A method of fabricating the endovascular device includes aging the endovascular device at about 485� C. for about 120 minutes.
