Abstract

The drug diffusion process through an arterial eluting stent is studied with a mathematical model. An exact analytical solution is given in the form of an infinite series expansion. The model addresses the role of four controlling parameters and provides qualitative considerations and a quantitative description for drug transport to evaluate feasibility of new drug delivery strategies, and to estimate dose response.
