โœฆ Synopsis

The argon fluoride excimer laser is investigated as a cutting-ablating tool for bone surgery. Quantitative measurements are presented for various fluences of laser energy and number of pulses. Histological data are presented that demonstrate the minimal damage to the surrounding material from the laser interaction. Comparisons are made for non-decalcified and decalcified bone. The differences observed, as a function of decalcification in the fluences required for specified depth penetration, are noted and a possible explanation is suggested.

One of the main problems in orthopaedics is the surgical removal of hard substances, such as bone and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA). Such materials are often very difficult to remove without mechanical trauma to the remaining tissue. This study investigated the feasibility of the ultraviolet 308 nm

A new cell surgery technique has been developed to produce well-defined alterations in cells and tissue without detectable heating and/or other structural damage in the surroundings. The technique involves the use of an argon fluoride excimer laser, in the deep ultraviolet (UV) region of the spectru
