PIONEER

Obvious solutions are not always the easiest to achieve

A next step in cardiovascular treatment should consist of increasing treatment effectiveness
while reducing risk and medication requirement. This has led to the obvious solution of
a CoCr stent on a drug eluting balloon.

Many innovations and many scientific studies have been required to achieve this reliable,
safe and effective great new opportunity for better care.
