About Vascular Magnetics: Vascular Magnetics is developing novel therapeutic products based on the magnetic targeting of drug-loaded biodegradable particles. The company's first product in development is a treatment for peripheral artery disease that is designed to target anti-restenotic drugs specifically to diseased arterial sites and deliver doses not achievable with a drug-eluting stent.  The company's approach, called Vascular Magnetic Intervention (VMI), combines a magnetic targeting catheter, and external magnetic device, along with drug-loaded biodegradable particles.  Learn more at www.vascularmagnetics.com.
