Angiographic Exclusion Criteria

1. Unprotected left main coronary artery disease (obstruction greater than 50% in the left main coronary artery that is not protected by at least one non-obstructed bypass graft to the LAD or Circumflex artery or a branch thereof).
2. Any previous stent placement within 15 mm (proximal or distal) of the target lesion(s).
3. Target vessel exhibiting lesions with greater than 60% diameter stenosis outside of a range of 5 mm proximal and distal to the target lesion(s) based on visual estimate or on-line QCA.
4. Target lesion(s) exhibiting an intraluminal thrombus (occupying >50% of the true lumen diameter) at any time.
5. Lesion location that is aorto-ostial or within 5 mm of the origin of the left anterior descending (LAD) or left circumflex (LCX).
6. The target lesion(s) requires treatment with a device other than PTCA prior to stent placement (such as, but not limited to, directional coronary atherectomy, excimer laser, rotational atherectomy, etc.).
7. Target lesion(s) with side branches > 2.0mm in diameter.
8. Target lesion(s) involving a bifurcation (either stenosis of both main vessel and major branch or stenosis of just major branch).
9. Target lesion(s) with severe calcification.
10. Target vessel exhibiting excessive tortuosity that may impede stent delivery and deployment at target lesion(s).
11. Target lesion(s) located in a native vessel distal to an anastomosis with a saphenous vein graft or a left/right internal mammary artery (LIMA/RIMA) bypass.
