Coronary stents. Stents are used in coronary 'revascularization' or 'angioplasty' procedures. These procedures are sometimes referred to as PCI [or] percutaneous coronary interventions. ... Stents are stainless steel or nytinol mesh like devices that look similar to the spring in a pen. [They] are delivered into the coronary artery on a catheter during a PCI procedure. They are then "deployed" in the artery by either expansion by a balloon or by a unique "self-expanding" delivery design. They serve as a scaffold to prop the inside of the artery (the lumen) open which increases blood flow to the heart muscle.

Copy stands ... are useful for amateur photographers who occasionally need a few copy negatives, and also for small microfilming jobs or similar work. This kind of stand is usually an upright column mounted on a copyboard. The camera is attached by means of its tripod socket to an arm-and-collar assembly, which slides up and down the column. A pair of lamps to illuminate the original are also mounted on the column at a suitable distance from the copyboard.
