Abstract

The method of radiofrequency heat lesion generation is reviewed with specific reference to the dorsal root entry zone. Experimental data on the impedance of electrolytic media as a function of temperature are reported, and their relation to what should be observed during radiofrequency lesioning in the body is commented upon. The future utility of impedance monitoring is discussed as well as possible implications of bipolar lesion electrode systems.
