In Vivo Corrosion of Acetabular Modular Tapers Reduces Local Corrosion Resistance: Near-Field Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy as an Indicator of the Type and Severity of Corrosion in Retrieved Hip Implants
{{output}}
Retrieved hip implant components experience a range of corrosion types and severity, often on small surface areas of the taper region. Tribocorrosion-related damage within modular taper regions and resulting changes of the oxide-covered surface can alter the l... ...
