The advent of drug-eluting stents has provided the interventional cardiologist an effective new tool in treating coronary restenosis. There remains, however, a small group of patients that still require intervention following drug-eluting stent therapy. Currently, intravascular brachytherapy (IVBT) is approved for use in the treatment of in-stent restenosis (ISR). This study investigated the effect of gamma and beta radiation doses typically used in IVBT on the performance of the TAXUS Express(2) paclitaxel-eluting stent.
