Although stents will continue to dominate the interventional coronary revascularization products market, the excitement surrounding drug-eluting models tends to overshadow other important product segments. Despite their
relative maturity, PTCA products are projected to see 12% annual growth, which will reflect rising procedures and
new products, such as total occlusion crossing devices, that will further expand indications to encompass
increasingly complex cardiovascular disease. Endovascular brachytherapy systems will present a window of
opportunity for suppliers, with total sales exceeding $560 million for the period from 2002 through 2006; although
the caseload with instent restenosis potentially requiring treatment will decline dramatically with the use of
drug-eluting stents after 2002, endovascular brachytherapy's penetration of that caseload will increase sharply,
contributing to continued, albeit gradually declining sales. This report examines the current and emerging U.S. markets for interventional coronary revascularization technologies, as well as the product offerings and competitive landscape of the manufacturers shaping this
dynamic market. In addition, the analysis forecasts the outlook for this landscape and provides in-depth profiles of
the key companies in this marketplace. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY I. Trends in Coronary Revascularization II. PTCA Products III. Coronary Stents IV. Antirestenosis Technologies V.

Coronary stents represent one of the most successful product launches in the history of the medical products industry and the latest market developments are about to generate a second, major growth phase by largely
solving the single greatest challenge associated with interventional revascularization: restenosis. The imminent
impact of drug-eluting stents will enable the treatment of many patients previously requiring surgical intervention,
thereby expanding overall PTCA and stenting caseloads and increasing product utilization per patient to generate
$5.3 billion in U.S. sales by 2006.
