In this study, a two-phase stent selection decision support system (DSS) is developed to help the physicians in their stent selection decisions. Firstly, a questionnaire was conducted to developed decision support system. Questions are randomly applied to cardiology department physicians in the province of Ankara, which is selected as pilot area, to get the results to be statistically valid. The results were evaluated by means of MINITAB14 program. In development of DSS, an independent set of criteria is obtained first and arranged in the Analytical Hierarchy Process (FAHP) decision hierarchy. In the first elimination phase of the DSS, the physician obtains the feasible set of stents by providing limited values for the 13 requirements. DSS, then, uses AHP decision hierarchy to rank the feasible stents in the second phase
