Article Synopsis
- Flow diverter devices are tiny stents designed to redirect blood flow away from brain aneurysms, helping to prevent their rupture by inducing blood clotting within the aneurysm.
- Current options leave permanent materials in the body, which can lead to complications, making absorbable devices that dissolve after use a better choice.
- The study introduces a new composite wire made of absorbable iron alloy and pure molybdenum, showing promising mechanical properties, progressive corrosion, and reduced fragmentation risk, indicating they could be ideal for absorbable flow diverters.
