Patent ID: 11213413

Abstract:
A stent is disclosed, which includes a stent body (2) and a single-radiopaque component (1) disposed at one or each of a proximal end and a distal end of the stent body (2). The stent body (2) is composed of rings and struts, and one part of the single-radiopaque component (1) is received in a receptacle (3) of the stent body (2) and another part of the single-radiopaque component (1) protrudes out of a surface of the stent body (2). The area of the protruding part (11) of the single-radiopaque component (1) is larger than an area of the embedded part (10), the presence of the protruding part (11) allowing the single-radiopaque component (1) to appear wider and thicker in a radiologic image, enhancing the radiopacity of the stent during surgery.
