Q. Which among these technology used in Orthopaedics has been inspired by working of NASA in space missions?
a. Carbon fibre
b. PEEK (polyether ether ketone) material
c. Low level laser therapy (LLLT)
d. Tentalum ( rare earth metal)
Answer -
LLLT used for alleviation of pain and inflammation has been inspired by astronauts as they used low lights LEDs in the space.
Carbon fibre is strong but light material used for making various implants and prosthesis.
PEEK is newer materials widely used in Orthopaedics implants like spine surgery etc..
Tentalum is rare earth metal used in hip arthroplasty procedures.
