Effects of Radiofrequency Energy on Human Chondromalacic Cartilage: An Assessment of Insulation Material Properties |
Abstract | ||
---|---|---|
The objective of this study was to establish guidelines for the selection of an insulation material used to surround the electrode of radiofrequency energy (RFE) probes used for thermal chondroplasty. These guidelines were established by identifying which insulation materials resulted in the least amount of chondrocyte death while smoothing the surface of chondromalacic cartilage. RFE causes elect... |
