    Neuro Surgery is much more complex than working on old Ferrari's. I would suggest a set of snap on tools to begin with.

    I wouldn't say 'snap on' to the guys here; it might have a different meaning.

    Weren't those used in back to the Future?

    Wasn't that what charged Marty's flux capacitor?

    webmd.com is usually good in describing conditions and treatment modalities in terms easy to understand. Some medical schools will also have websites for patients to educate themselves.

    When I do a Google Search to understand what these things are, I get info like this:

    "Endoscopic monopolar and bipolar devices were compared during cutting and coagulation. It was observed on appropriate animal models that the initial resistance (impedance) values recorded correspond to the normal tissue impedance at the electrode. The subsequent impedance values increase 25 to 50 ohms for the coagulator which relates to tissue desiccation and for the cutting electrodes the impedance increases greater than 1000 ohms during the arcing process. At similar power settings, typical monopolar generators produce maximum power at 300 to 500 ohms while typical bipolar generators produce maximum power at 25 to 100 ohms. With impedances greater than 1000 ohms, monopolar generators are capable of higher power output than are bipolar generators. Since cutting is a high impedance process, bipolar cutting electrodes do not perform as intended with typical bipolar generators. Therefore, bipolar cutting electrodes should be employed with a monopolar generator or a generator designed specifically for their use."

    It's a lot clearer to me now.

    I am a surgeon and use Bipolar Cautery to minimize adjacent tissue damage during microsurgical procedures. With all due respect, what does this have to do with F-cars?

    Dear jet2911:

    I am just trying to get info on products I might be selling. Lots of top docs have top cars. The rest of us drive Elises.

    Thanks

    So you are not trying to get information, evidently you are already in the know. Just fishing for leads to enrich youself. Go f*ck yourself and have a nice day.

    Everyones got an open'r, some just better than others and this one gets marks for "beating it around the bush."

    Dear RMDC:

    I am trying to get opinions from neuro surgeons about one brand of Bipolar Gererators. I AM NOT SELLING ANYTHING TO ANYONE ON THIS BOARD.

    PS my car will run yours right off the track!!

    And a properly driven 3 series could probably do the same to yours. What's your point?

    Mines bigger! I'm smarter!

    I guess you won't be one of those "top docs" with a "top car" if you can't even research bipolar generators. Do you want me to tuck you in when you go to bed?

    I believe a company called MDM Eurotics sells this sort of thing.

    Are we to assume you have a Ferrari? being that is Ferrarichat? What is the 911 Eater?

    Curious, since your profile is blank?

    You can find the answer within grasshopper...

    Pretty clearly a salesman shopping for leads... If I was his boss I might applaud his initiative, but as a member of the site... I'm not impressed.

    Can someone just zap this string and ban the guy from FerrariChat? It's hurting my neurons!
