Described herein is a braided stent having have a plurality of different segments that can reduce or eliminate foreshortening and allow the proximal end of the stent to more reliably open when deployed in a curved vessel. The segments can be connected together by interlocking loops positioned at the end of each segment and can be formed of one or more radially progressing wave patterns.
