The Potential Role of Graphene in Developing the Next Generation of Endomaterials

الملخص EN

Graphene is the first 2-dimensional material and possesses a plethora of original properties.

Graphene and its derivatives have exhibited a great potential in a number of fields, both medical and nonmedical.

The aim of this review is to set the theoretical basis for further research in developing graphene-based endovascular materials.

An extensive search was performed in medical and bioengineering literature.

Published data on other carbon materials, as well as limited data from medical use of graphene, are promising.

Graphene is a promising future material for developing novel endovascular materials.

Certain issues as biocompatibility, biotoxicity, and biostability should be explored further.
