Suitability Analysis of Industrial Drills for Minimally Invasive Skull Base Surgery

Medical drilling processes, especially in the area of the otobase, pose a high risk to the patient due to the heat generated and introduced into the tissue. Two measures of reducing the heat are the parameters of the drilling process and the optimisation of the drill geometry. A spiral drill and a s...
