Abstract
It is shown that when performing surgical operations to remove foreign metal particles from the human body, it is advisable to use metal detectors of various types: flux-gate detectors for localizing ferromagnetic particles and eddy current detectors for localizing nonferromagnetic metal particles. The sensitivity of medical equipment must be sufficient to detect small ferromagnetic fragments and particles from a distance of at least 10 mm. The feasibility of preliminary magnetization of the search area with a strong permanent magnet is shown. Methods for setting up metal detectors are given. The need to minimize extraneous electromagnetic fields in the operating room is shown.
期刊介绍:
Russian Journal of Nondestructive Testing, a translation of Defectoskopiya, is a publication of the Russian Academy of Sciences. This publication offers current Russian research on the theory and technology of nondestructive testing of materials and components. It describes laboratory and industrial investigations of devices and instrumentation and provides reviews of new equipment developed for series manufacture. Articles cover all physical methods of nondestructive testing, including magnetic and electrical; ultrasonic; X-ray and Y-ray; capillary; liquid (color luminescence), and radio (for materials of low conductivity).
