Re: Si pin xrf ..1st go


 

" Imagine that if its still inside somebody"? Uh......yeah.

OK I will do XRF Ti Knee

Cardio docs have "samples" of aorta valves to handle and show patients. Not using titanium ones much anymore, but I can try to do XRF on old one if you don't find "sample".

The transplant is likely for ankle internal fixation.

I think it¡¯s Synthes ,USA brand.

These implants need to be removed once they have done their job

They can fatigue and fracture if kept too long.

This one is corroding in the pic

Imagine that if its still inside somebody .

Anything yellow is chromium plated as far as??most surgeons are concerned.

Medical personnel sometimes take things for granted?

Knee transplants are permanent features so I can¡¯t get access??to old ones?

Sternal wires should be available?

I don¡¯t do cardiac so I need to check it out

Taray did you mention what the implant was used for?
Do you have access to artificial Knee or a St. Judes Aortic valve, or the stainless steel wire they sew up the strernum with after open-heart?

Dude
? Here are some pics of 2 different aprons
Apron 1 is slightly thicker than apron 2

Next pic is old orthopedic implant.
It appears to be a niobium titanium implant
It has a yellow coating
Suspect should be chromium but not seeing the pics
Taray
Pic is? for apron and implant
