6. BACKGROUND: Conformability of metallic platform stents (MPS) is the major determinant of geometric changes in coronary arteries caused by the stent deployment
7. Better Conformability of stents may be achieved by reducing the number of connecting struts between the stent modules, but this can induce separation between the stent modules with plaque protrusion at the outer curve and modules overlaying each other at the inner curve.
