Abstract

This work presents the results of experimental studies of aortic implants using Raman spectroscopy method (RS). The features of Raman spectra of aortic implants, made by two different protocols, were obtained. Were introduced optical coefficients that allow to monitor the content of main components in aortic implants during manufacturing process and to assess the quality of their processing.
