MGuard(TM), InspireMD's Novel Coronary Stent System, was Celebrated by World Leading Interventional Cardiologists at the Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics (TCT) in Washington DC, USA, October 12-17 2008
Date:11/10/2008

TEL AVIV, Israel, November 10 /PRNewswire/ -- InspireMD, developers of the novel MGuard(TM) coronary stent system, announced today that MGuard(TM) was successfully implanted in a complex lesion in a live case at the TCT '08. The procedure was performed by Dr. Dariusz Dudek and was broadcast from Krakow, Poland. Additionally, InspireMD's Breakfast Meeting Symposium "A New Approach to Treating Thrombus Containing Lesions (ACS, AMI and SVG)" was met with great enthusiasm and excitement. Some of the world's leading interventional cardiologists and opinion leaders were among the speakers at the MGuard(TM) symposium and included Alexandre Abizaid MD, Yaron Almagor MD, Carlo Di Mario MD, Martin Leon MD, and Chaim Lotan MD.

The excitement over the MGuard(TM) stent system at TCT '08 commenced on the first day of the conference with Dr. Eberhard Grube's inspiring presentation on MGuard(TM): "Coronary Stent Grafts and Micro Stents - The InspireMD Woven PET Polymer MGuard(TM) Stent Graft: Clinical Experiences in Saphenous Vein Grafts and Native Coronaries". Dr. Eberhard Grube is Professor of Medicine, Chief of the Department of Cardiology and Angiology at Helios Heart Centre in Siegburg, Germany and Consulting Professor in the Division of Cardiovascular Medicine at Stanford University School of Medicine.

On the TCT '08 exhibition floor the InspireMD booth received much attention throughout the event and a constant stream of excited visitors enjoyed the demonstrations of the novel MGuard(TM) coronary stent system. Interventional cardiologists eager to implement this approach in a variety of lesions and indications approached the InspireMD staff and inquired about distributors in their countries in order to request the MGuard(TM) at their local hospitals for ACS, AMI and SVG procedures claiming they had many patients they could treat with the MGuard(TM) stent system.

On Wednesday, October 15th, the third day of the TCT event, MGuard(TM) was implanted i
