Balloon Catheter In article number 2100037, Khalil Moussi and colleagues propose a novel concept for endovascular drug delivery using 3D printed microneedles on a balloon catheter. This solution provides site‐specific delivery of therapeutics into the blood vessels. The precise and targeted delivery features were confirmed with an ex vivo test on a rabbit aorta.
