ENDOPROSTHESIS COATING

摘要

A method includes: providing a tubular substrate in a chamber, the tubular substrate having a lumen, an abluminal surface and a luminal surface; providing a target in the lumen; depositing a first coating onto the abluminal surface and a second coating onto the luminal surface while keeping the tubular substrate in the chamber. An endoprosthesis, such as a stent, including a first coating on at least one portion of its abluminal surface and a second coating on at least one portion of its luminal surface is also disclosed.
