Abstract

This relates to devices for providing support for biological tissue, for example to repair spinal compression fractures, and methods of using the same. In particular, deices and methods are described for an expanding stent structure that can brace and stabilize a damaged vertebral body (or any other anatomical structure) from within the body. The expanding stent structure is one that expands in response to an applied axially compressive force.
