Employing high-frequency alternating magnetic fields for the non-invasive treatment of prosthetic joint infections
Abstract Treatment of prosthetic joint infection (PJI) usually requires surgical replacement of the infected joint and weeks of antibiotic therapy, due to the formation of biofilm. We introduce a non-invasive method for thermal destruction of biofilm on metallic implants using high-frequency (>10...
