Radial Dilation Force of Tipless and Helical Stone Baskets
2004
Journal of endourology
Purpose: To evaluate one aspect of tipless and helical stone basket function that is critical for ureteral stone extraction: the radial-dilation force. Materials and Methods: Nine commercially available tipless baskets and five commercially available helical stone baskets were tested.
