Standard Test Method for Dynamic Impingement Between Femoral and Acetabular Hip Components
This test method covers a procedure to simulate dynamic impingement between femoral and acetabular components in a hip replacement; the subsequent qualitative assessment of damage modes; and, if necessary, quantitative assessment of changes in modular component attachment strength. This test method can be used to evaluate impingement between femoral components and the following: single-piece, modular,…
Our Testing Services
