Abstract

The present invention, in an exemplary embodiment, provides a scent, which combines many of the excellent characteristics of both silicone and metal scents while eliminating the undesirable ones. In particular, a principal objective in accordance with the present invention is to provide a family of scents where the relative hardness/softness of regions of the scent can differ from other regions of the scent to provide additional patient comfort and resistance to radial forces. An exemplary embodiment also provides a family of stents with novel interstice configurations that facilitate flexibility, durability and/or proper installation.
