title: Intravascular ultrasound comparison of chronic recoil among different stent designs.
abstract: Intravascular ultrasound studies were acquired in 70 native coronary artery lesions after implantation and at follow-up of Palmaz-Schatz, GFX, NIR, and CrossFlex stents. Chronic stent recoil was minimal in the Palmaz-Schatz, GFX, and NIR stents; however, there was small, but significant chronic recoil of the CrossFlex stent.
