Abstract: An implantable medical device is adapted to be implanted at an implantation site within the vasculature and is capable of being implanted at the implantation site within the vasculature at more than one position relative to the implantation site. This may include a relative axial position and/or a relative rotational position. The implantable medical device includes an expandable frame that is adapted to expand from a collapsed configuration for delivery to an expanded configuration for deployment, and one or more radiopaque markers disposed relative to the expandable frame such that fluoroscopic imaging of the implantable medical device during deployment provides an indication of a position of the implantable medical device relative to the implantation site. The implantable medical device may be a replacement cardiac valve such as a replacement aortic valve, for example.
