Poster summary

This article considers the possibility of creating an ultrathin drug coating for biliary stents. The article also presents theoretical calculations of the interaction of the complex based on the copolymer "polylactic acid - polycaprolactone" modified by carbon nanotubes. This coating is proposed to reduce the risks of thrombosis and restenosis during endobiliary stenting.
