Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Of primary interest are the changes in the diameter of the stent ring due to<br /><br>hemodynamic forces. We distinguish between changes during the heartbeat<br /><br>(pulsatility) and changes over a period of several months (expansion). </p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>* How does the estimated vessel compliance change over a period of several<br /><br>months?<br /><br>* Can we observe other kinds of motion that change over time? </p><br>
