Radio Frequency Cautery

Product Details:

Radio frequency (RF) cautery is a surgical technique that uses high-frequency radio waves to cut, coagulate, or remove soft tissue:  

• How it worksA surgeon uses a hand-held device with an active electrode to transmit radio waves to the tissue. An antenna plate positioned behind the tissue focuses the radio waves on it. The radio waves heat the tissue's cellular water, producing steam and vaporizing the tissue.
