| Title: | Method for Coating a Medical Device, Especially a Vascular Stent |
| Description: | The present invention refers to a method for producing desired morphology of a nanotubular matrix, in particular titanium dioxide containing matrix, which reduces adhesion and activation of platelets on medical devices. Surfaces produced by the method of invention can be used for blood contacting devices, such as stents and artificial heart valves in order to reduce thrombus reactions on the implant material surface. |
