Ultrasonic surgery systems present the surgeon with a host of control parameters and design choices that may directly affect clinical outcome. These include amplitude setting, probe/cannula tip design, probe/cannula diameter, vibration frequency, and mode of energy delivery. Currently, no commonly accepted objective means of measurement (or measurements) exists that can be used to assess the impact of these control parameters, to compare different systems/designs, or to provide a common basis for interpreting clinical outcomes.
