There is a need for lasers that are compatible with fiberoptic endoscopes and that provide greater cutting precision than currently can be produced by the widely used Nd:YAG (1.06 pm) laser. Recently available lasers that operate in the 2-pm region fill this need. This laser light energy can be tran

Tissue effects of the mid-IR Holmium laser (emitting at a wavelength of 2130nm) were evaluated. This wavelength is attractive because it combines high water absorption and easy transmission through standard optical fibres. The laser was pulsed with pulse durations in the range of 100psec and repetit
