What function does the metal detection feature on the SynergyRF Bipolar Ablation System perform?

The metal detection feature on the SynergyRF Bipolar Ablation System is designed to enhance safety during surgical procedures. Its primary function is to suspend power to the probe when it is in close proximity to metal instruments or a scope. This safety mechanism helps to prevent accidental burns or unintended energy delivery to surrounding tissues or instruments, which could potentially lead to complications during surgery. By halting power when necessary, the system helps maintain a controlled environment, allowing the surgeon to proceed with precision while minimizing risks associated with electrical interference or damage. This feature is crucial in ensuring both the effectiveness of the ablation process and the overall safety of the surgical team and patient.
