Abstract
A stent deployment catheter having an expandable section is inserted into a patient's vasculature to position the expandable section within the diseased area. Various devices can then be quickly and easily inserted within the deployment catheter precisely positioned with respect to the diseased area, and withdrawn without traumatizing vessel tissue. Inflation of a balloon within the expandable section allows a lesion to be dilated or a stent mounted on the expandable section to be expanded and implanted in the vessel.
