Radiolase® II - makro-med

Surgitron ® Radiolase ® II
redefines your surgical results with
4.0 MHz Radiowave Technology
The patented Surgitron ® Radiolase ® II energy source
represents advanced radiowave technology that provides
unparalleled surgical control, precision, versatility and safety.
The high frequency of 4.0 MHz minimizes heat dissipation
and thus, cellular alteration. Clinical benefits include reduced
post-operative discomfort, minimal scar tissue formation,
maximum readability of histologic specimen, enhanced healing
and excellent cosmetic results.
Ellman’s technology has received worldwide acclaim and recognition
from leading surgeons, clinics, universities and authors.

High frequency radiowaves are absorbed in cellular water resulting in
shallow absorption, reducing the risk of injury to surrounding structures
and tissue.

High frequency is what separates the Surgitron ® Radiolase ® II from all
other radio frequency and electrosurgical units. Research indicates the
frequency combination of the Surgitron ® Radiolase ® II is optimal for
controlled absorption and surgical precision.

“Transmission electron microscopy sections at the cellular level show that the
electrosurgical radiofrequency surgical instrument (ellman Int’l.) produces the least
damage to surrounding healthy tissue.”

“With the waveform and power output held constant, tissue alteration increased as
machine carrier frequency decreased. The machine with the lowest
frequency of operation produced the greatest amount of tissue alteration.”

“The quality of the tissue margins of specimens obtained using a 4.0MHz
radiofrequency surgical unit approached the quality of those obtained with the cold
knife in their lack of thermal and mechanical artifact.”

The Journal of Reproductive Medicine
Fresh brain tissue measuring 2.0 x 1.0 x 1.0 cm in largest dimension was
submitted for histologic evaluation of surgical incision created using 4.0 MHz
radiofrequency technology. The area of radio frequency electrosurgical incision
shows minimal superficial changes measuring from 10 – 20 microns thickness.

The Fully Rectified and Filtered current indicated for pure cutting, produces
minimal lateral heat (0-15 microns). It is used for very gentle and delicate
cutting, avoiding carbonization and cellular destruction due to the minimum loss of
lateral heat. This type of current is ideal when performing cuts near the bone, and
it is very useful for obtaining specimen for biopsy, grafts, flaps, incision for draining,
and for surgery in mucosa.
