Tissue-engineered blood vessel mimics in complex geometries for intravascular device testing.
<h4>Objective</h4>Intravascular stents are commonly used to treat occluded arteries during coronary heart disease. After coronary stent implantation, endothelial cells grow over the stent, which is referred to as re-endothelialization. Re-endothelialization prevents blood from clotting o...
