The influence of water jet diameter and bone structural properties on the efficiency of pure water jet drilling in porcine bone
Using water jets in orthopedic surgery to drill holes in bones can be beneficial due to the absence of thermal damage and the always sharp cut. To minimize operating time and the volume of water that is used, the efficiency (volume of removed bone per added volume of water) of the water jet should b...
