Mechanical strength of Bioresorbable Scaffolds (BRS) is highly dependent on strut dimensions and polymer features. Thicker struts have the potential for delivery challenges and higher thrombogenicity. Due to the inherent… Click to show full abstract

Mechanical strength of Bioresorbable Scaffolds (BRS) is highly dependent on strut dimensions and polymer features. Thicker struts have the potential for delivery challenges and higher thrombogenicity. Due to the inherent limitations of the first-generation PLLA, reduction of wall thickness of BRS is
