摘要:
A multi-chip module and a method for manufacturing the multi-chip module. A first semiconductor chip is mounted to a support substrate and a second semiconductor chip is mounted to the first semiconductor chip. The second semiconductor chip has a smaller dimension than the first semiconductor chip. A spacer is coupled to the second semiconductor chip. Bonding pads on the first and second semiconductor chips are wirebonded to bonding pads on the support substrate. A third semiconductor chip is mounted to the spacer and bonding pads on the third semiconductor chip are wirebonded to bonding pads on the support substrate.
摘要:
A device and a method of manufacturing an implantable medical device, such as a stent, are described herein. The device includes a metallic region composed of a bioerodable metal and a polymer region composed of a biodegradable polymer contacting the metallic region. The metallic region may erode at a different rate when exposed to bodily fluids than the polymer region when exposed to bodily fluids. In certain embodiments, the polymer region is an outer layer and the metallic region is an inner layer of the device. A further aspect of the invention includes device and a method of manufacturing the device that includes a mixture of a biodegradable polymer and bioerodable metallic particles. The mixture may be used to fabricate an implantable medical device or to coat an implantable medical device. In some embodiments, the metallic particles are metallic nanoparticles.
摘要:
Devices and methods for reducing, inhibiting, or treating restenosis and hyperplasia after intravascular intervention are provided. In particular, the present invention provides luminal prostheses which allow for sustained or controlled release of at least one therapeutic capable agent with increased efficacy to selected locations within a patient's vasculature to reduce restenosis. An intraluminal prosthesis may comprise an expandable structure and a source adjacent the expandable structure for releasing the therapeutic capable agent into a body lumen to reduce smooth muscle cell proliferation.
