Lightning rods that don’t protect
Heart Rhythm, 2015Is it safe to ablate myocardial tissue with radiofrequency (RF) energy when other metallic objects are near the ablation catheter tip? Will heating occur at objects such as metallic esophageal temperature probes and electrodes on other mapping catheters? Does the presence of nearby metal, such as an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) shocking

Designers that adopt composite materials for the skin of aerospace structures must verify that their systems guarantee an equivalent level of protection against lightning strikes with respect to the ones that adopt traditional metallic skins. In particular, the design must ensure that lightning strikes do not cause critical damages to structures ...
