Electromagnetic field stimulator device for anatomic biophysical chondroprotection

摘要

Electromagnetic field stimulator device in which a current generator device supplies a solenoid with current the waveform of which includes the repetition of a ramp having a certain slope. This current causes the generation of an electromagnetic field that induces on a control probe irradiated by the electromagnetic field, an induced voltage of markedly constant amplitude during the ramp-like linear growth period of the current. This electromagnetic field is used to preserve the integrity of articular cartilage subject to degeneration.
