International Congress of Cardiology in Spain
Thursday, October 4, 2012 @ 11:08 PM
Today has been celebrated an International Congress of Cardiology in Madrid.There, its members were to show the recent advances.
Among other advances, they were to show a new system for unclogging heart arteries.They were to explain that a small spiral --like a spring-- is placed into the artery, in order that the lsmall device makes the artery widen.So, the blood flow.This small device is named "Stent".

But, also this small device is used for treating the esophageal cancer.

A new, in this Congress, is that this small device is made of a plastic, with the ability to be absorbed by the body.So you have not to keep the device for ever.
I hope that this one and other new devices can help to many people all over the world.
Kind regards,
Luis
