Q&A
1. Q: In what cases is it necessary to implant a vascular stent?

A: When blood vessel stenosis causes ischemia and hypoxia of tissues and organs, stents can be used to open and support the narrowed blood vessels. Stent implantation is a minimally invasive interventional surgery that does not require general anesthesia. When the patient is awake, a thin needle is inserted into the blood vessel at the wrist or thigh root, and a very thin guide wire and catheter are inserted. The stent is transported from the catheter to the narrowed blood vessel and opened to restore blood supply to the tissues. Usually, the patient can walk after the operation without affecting normal life.

2. Q: Is the stent an outdated technology?
3. Q: Why do we need biodegradable scaffolds?
4. Q: What are the biodegradable scaffolds? Which one is the best?
5. Q: Which patients would benefit most from implanting a biodegradable scaffold?
6. Q: Why is Biotyx the only one in the world that develops iron scaffolds?
7. Q : Do iron scaffolds degrade unevenly in the body?
8. Q: How are iron scaffolds degraded and absorbed in the human body?
9. Q: Is the iron scaffold toxic?
10. Q: Iron participates in the Fenton reaction to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), oxidize lipids and induce DNA damage, forming atherosclerosis and causing cell death, so it is toxic and may be carcinogenic?
11. Q: What is the MR (magnetic resonance) compatibility of the iron scaffold?
12. Q: How long does it take for an iron scaffold to degrade in the human body?
13. Q: Can I pass through the security gate after implanting an iron scaffold? Will the security machine beep?
14. Q: How long should I take dual-antibody drugs after the iron scaffold is implanted?
15. Q: Are there any special requirements during the iron scaffold surgery?
16. Q: I hope to have the iron scaffold implanted now. Is that possible?
17. Q: When is the iron scaffold expected to be approved?
