Article

This article discusses our take on TRTs in a (relatively) non-mathematical way.

It discusses tissue denaturation using the Arrhenius Damage Equation which describes the ‘change of state of one species into another’. It also introduces the concept of ‘Omega’ – a parameter which describes the amount of tissue damaged by the heating process.

I welcome any comments or queries.
