далее по теме....вот такой тест провели на продольное укорочение среди 7 стентов:

In their bench analysis of seven different stents, which involved the compression of the stents 5 mm, the least amount of force was required for the Omega and Driver stents, each requiring 0.40 N and 0.71 N of force, respectively. The Cypher stent required 1.33 N of force to compress 5 mm, a significant difference compared with the Omega and Driver stents. The Integrity (Medtronic), Liberté (Boston Scientific), Vision (Abbott Vascular), and MultiLink (Abbott Vascular) stents all required significantly more force to compress 5 mm compared with the Omega stent. When 0.5 N of force was applied to the Cypher stent it did not shorten, while little shortening was observed with the Vision and MultiLink stents, and the most distortion with the Driver and Omega stents.
