Pore networks and polymer rearrangement on a drug-eluting stent as revealed by correlated confocal Raman and atomic force microscopy

Drug release from and coating morphology on a CYPHER sirolimus-eluting coronary stent (SES) during in vitro elution were studied by correlated confocal Raman and atomic force microscopy (CRM and AFM, respectively). Chemical surface and subsurface maps of the SES were generated in the same region of...
