Five new zirconia, five new CoCrMo and three explanted CoCrMo femoral heads were wear-tested in bovine serum for five million cycles using the Durham Hip Joint Wear Simulator. Wear was measured gravimetrically and surface topography with a 3D non-con... Read More about An evaluation of the tribological performance of zirconia and CoCrMo femoral heads.
