Few data are available about temperature distribution in tissue during Nd:YAG laser irradiation. To study the heat distribution that produces tissue coagulation, we used a thermographic camera aimed orthogonally to the laser beam axis to obtain thermal maps. Immediately after surgical resection, spe
Flow and heat transfer in biological tissues are analyzed in this investigation. Pertinent works are reviewed in order to show how transport theories in porous media advance the progress in biology. The main concepts studied in this review are transport in porous media using mass diffusion and diffe
Background and Objective: Reduction of thermal damage inbred with laser surgery is an ongoing challenge. The cavitation effect has been shown to facilitate the transmission of a laser beam through the otherwise opaque water layer. We suggest that by immersing the target tissue in water during laser
