In neurosurgical practice the laser can be considered an additional instrument to improve conventional techniques, or even a new method of treatment of some cerebral lesions. A complete laser surgery requires the association of three laser sources in combination. The CO, laser is useful for cutting

β¦ Synopsis
The function of elastic elements of the vessel wall is to produce a tension suitable to resist the distension strength made by blood pressure. By producing a modification in the morphologic and structural configuration of such elastic elements, it is possible to obtain changes of the elastic resistance of the wall. The paper reports the histological and physical modifications of blood vessel walls irradiated with different laser sources.

A detailed understanding is required of the effect of Nd:YAG power density and coaxial CO2 on tissue necrosis in both the acute and healing situation. Lesions were produced by varying peak powers at eight increments of 10 W from 40-110 W/sec for a time duration of 1 sec with and without coaxial CO2
Leakage after intestinal resection is a serious complication with a high mortality rate. A recent study claims that cutting the intestine with the COz laser improves the healing of intestinal anastomoses (Ferulano et al: Eur Surg Res 16:127-130, 1984). The present study was undertaken to analyze the
## Background and Objective : To compare the in vivo histologic effects of the carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) and erbium:yttrium aluminum garnet (Er:YAG) lasers. To ascertain the effects of combining CO 2 and Er:YAG laser modalities during a single treatment session. Study Design/Materials and Methods: Te
## Abstract A threeβdimensional analyzer installed in a scanning electron microscope was used to evaluate the morphology and surface roughness using noncontact profilometry. Observations were carried out on the enamel and dentin surface irradiated by three different lasers: Nd:YAG (wavelength 1.06
