Silicon Identification in Prosthesis-Associated Fibrous Capsules

Silicon Identification in Prosthesis-Associated Fibrous Capsules

The use of correlated microscopic techniques, including the scanning electron microscopic modes of backscattered electron imaging and energy dispersive x-ray analysis, aid in defining the process of dispersion of silicon-containing material around silicone rubber (polydimethylsiloxane) prosthetic de...
