A coated assembly with an inductance of from about 0.1 to about 5 nanohenries and a capacitance of from about 0.1 to about 10 nanofarads. The coated assembly contains a stent and a coating. When the assembly is exposed to radio frequency electromagnetic radiation with a frequency of from 10 megahertz to about 200 megahertz, at least 90 percent of the electromagnetic radiation penetrates to the interior of the stent. |
