Surgery Set-Up, Instrumentations and Electronic Equipment
摘要
A dedicated setting and specific equipment are essential for performing arthroscopic surgery. An arthroscopy tower provides several shelves to house electronic equipment, including a light source, camera unit, monitor, irrigation system pumps and power boxes for motorized and radiofrequency instruments. Arthroscopes contain a magnifying lens system enclosed within a rigid tube, allowing thorough joint examination. A wide array of manual, motorized and radiofrequency instruments are available for tasks such as palpation, grasping, pulling, cutting, penetrating, removing or ablating tissues.
