Under expanded regions which predispose to stent thrombosis can be identified and subjected to repeated balloon dilatations at higher pressures. Optimal stent size can be assessed better with intravascular ultrasound than by coronary angiography because angiographic measurements only give the luminal size. If there is diffuse narrowing of a vessel, actual vessel diameter may be underestimated by angiography, while intravascular ultrasound is able to detect this as an increase in the vessel wall thickness.<\/p>\n<p>First generation stents have sometimes undergone thrombosis even several years later when antiplatelet agents are withheld prior to a surgical procedure or after a bleeding episode.
