A novel 3D additive manufacturing machine to biodegradable stents

Biodegradable stents offer the potential to improve long-term patency rates by providing support just long enough for the artery to heal. However, design a biodegradable structure for an intended period of support is rather difficult. Nowadays in the stent industry the manufacture process par excell...
