Abstract: A stent having marker tabs formed from a micro-alloyed combination of
materials provides for more precise placement and post-procedural
visualization in a vessel, by increasing the radiopacity of the stent under X-ray
fluoroscopy. A unique micro-alloying process is utilized to form the tabs,

radiopaque. This substantially eliminates the possibility of galvanic action
between the tab and the stent. This process is also applicable to other medical
devices.
