Supera™ Stent Lesion Preparation
Per the Instructions for Use, physicians should prepare the vessel using standard angioplasty technique; balloon size should be greater than or equal to the stent diameter. Refer to the IFU for additional information.

Guidelines for Stent Sizing
The image below is a percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) balloon inflation example for a 5.5 mm Supera™ Stent.
Precaution: The vessel/duct after pre-dilatation should be at least the size of the stent diameter. If recommended, vessel/duct diameter cannot be gained, optimal stent deployment may not be achieved and revised stent sizing should be considered.
