Indicated for use in general surgical applications for incision, excision, ablation, cutting, vaporization, hemostasis, and coagulation of soft tissue contact or non-contact, open or closed endoscopic applications where incision, tissue dissection, excision of external tumors and lesions, complete or partial resection of internal organs, tumors and lesions, tissue vaporization, hemostasis and/or coagulation may be indicated.
A mains electricity (AC-powered) device assembly in which input energy (e.g., flashlamp, diode laser) is used to excite a glass/crystal rod to emit a high-power laser beam intended for general surgery and/or multiple specialized surgical applications (non-dedicated), which may include treatment of vascular diseases. It vaporizes/ablates soft tissue with moderate haemostasis, little charring, and a thin zone of necrosis. It includes a light source, delivery/positioning device(s), and controls/foot-switch and emits a midinfrared wavelength. It does not include frequency doubling technology.
