CardioVascular Deals

CardioVascular Dynamics Inc. said it has agreed to acquire privately held Intraluminal Devices Inc. for $1.4 million worth of common stock. Both companies are headquartered in Irvine. Intraluminal, which has only two employees, will be merged into CardioVascular, which has almost 150 workers, a spokesman said. Intraluminal makes medical stents--devices that are placed in veins and arteries to keep them from collapsing. The acquisition is expected to close this month.
