A stent is disclosed, which includes a stent body () and a single-radiopaque component () disposed at one or each of a proximal end and a distal end of the stent body (). The stent body () is composed of rings and struts, and one part of the single-radiopaque component () is received in a receptacle () of the stent body () and another part of the single-radiopaque component () protrudes out of a surface of the stent body (). The area of the protruding part () of the single-radiopaque component () is larger than an area of the embedded part (), the presence of the protruding part () allowing the single-radiopaque component () to appear wider and thicker in a radiologic image, enhancing the radiopacity of the stent during surgery.
