When using a monopolar technique, the dispersive electrode is used to complete the electrical circuit and return the current back to the generator. The thigh is a good location for placing the dispersive electrode as it has a large muscle mass and is typically easy to access, providing efficient dispersion of the electrical current. The abdomen, knee, and shoulder are not as ideal for placement of the dispersive electrode.
