A stent that includes a stent body, which includes a strut formed from a cylindrical base material. The strut possesses a manufactured minimum outer diameter when the strut is formed from the cylindrical base material. The stent body is configured to be compressed onto an outer surface of an expandable member of a catheter. The stent body is configured to be expanded radially outward by applying a nominal pressure directed by a manufacturer within the expandable member. The strut possesses an expanded outer diameter when the stent body is expanded by the expandable member at a pressure which is two atm lower than the nominal pressure. The manufactured minimum outer diameter of the strut is equal to or larger than expanded outer diameter of the strut when the stent body is expanded by the expandable member at the pressure which is two atm lower than the nominal pressure.
