A New Screening Method Designed for Wear Analysis of Bearing Surfaces Used in Total Hip Arthroplasty /

New technologies of surface treatment are speculated to reduce or prevent the generation of polyethylene particles. These new (spherical) bearing surfaces need to be evaluated with an appropriate testing method. Results from testing of flat surfaces are -in general- difficult to interpret
