Quantifying the relationship between biofilm reduction and thermal tissue damage on metal implants exposed to alternating magnetic fields

CONCLUSION: Overall, this study demonstrates that with uniform heating to temperatures above 70 °C, an implant surface can be largely reduced of biofilm, with only a few mm of surrounding tissue damage.PMID:35634916 | DOI:10.1080/02656736.2022.2065038
