| Description/Overview: |
In this combined comparative study, research conducted at both ArthroCare and UCSF Medical Center determined that the intradiscal temperatures generated by the IDET (IntraDiscal ElectroThermy) procedure were significantly higher than those produced by the DISC Nucleoplasty procedure.
The authors concluded that the DISC Nucleoplasty procedure provides a higher thermal safety margin than that of other intradiscal procedures such as IDET. |
