Bare-metal stents have been replaced by drug-eluting stents in the majority of cases, which further reduce the risk of restenosis (3). Because stents or other interventional devices are commonly ...used, the coronary angioplasty procedure is more aptly termed "percutaneous coronary intervention" (PCI). ...of the maturation of PCI as a discipline and the ongoing clarification of its role in the management of coronary heart disease, the public can and should appropriately expect consistent access to high-quality PCI capability. Recognition and management of complications are critical components of PCI procedures that require skill, knowledge, experience, and judgment. Since there can be variation among operators in cognitive knowledge and skill and among procedures in technical difficulty, there is a potential for substantial variation in procedure safety and efficacy.\n Robert O.

This paper will report on the work performed by BP Solar during the first two years of NREL PVMaT subcontract #ZDO-2-30628-03. The major objectives of this program are to continue the advancement of ...BP Solar's multicrystalline silicon manufacturing technology to: increase ingot size; improve ingot material quality; develop wire saws to slice 100 /spl mu/m thick silicon wafers; develop equipment for demounting and handling of ultra-thin wafers; develop cell processes that produce cells with efficiencies of at least 15.4% at an overall yield exceeding 95%; expand existing in-line manufacturing data reporting systems; establish a 50 MW factory model; and facilitate an increase in the silicon feedstock industry's production capacity for lower-cost solar grade feedstock.
