There are allot of factors to consider when deciding which BGS design to utilize for what application and we are here to help!  

Each have their niche determined by many combination of factors i.e.. anticipated patient compliance, type bone, location, age and size of non-union, type of tissue to penetrate, etc.

There are two types of delivery designs, PMF (pulsed magnetic frequency) and capacitive coupling as well as numerous manufacturers. 

PMF requires a coil, therefore the device itself is over the site and three twenty minute to two hour treatments are recommended per day while capacitive coupling requires electrodes which go over the effected site and it is worn twenty-four hours per day

Spinal BGS is now available as well!

Indications For Use:

Established Non-Unions i.e. tibia, metatarsal, femur, carpal navicular, humerus, ankle, radius, ulna, fibula, metacarpal, capitate etc.
