The purpose of this __in vitro__ study was to verify through micro tensile bond test the bond strength of an adhesive system irradiated with Nd:YAG laser in dentine previously treated with Er:YAG laser. Twenty caries free extracted human third molars were used. The teeth were divided in four experim

✦ Synopsis
Histological investigation of the dog's myocardium performed 7 and 25 days after irradiation with different doses of Nd-YAG laser show that the damage zone has the shape of a hollow sphere with minor changes in cardiomyocytes in the central part of the sphere. The small blood vessels in the irradiated zone remained undamaged as well. A tentative explanation of the physical process that leads to this type of coagulation zone is given.

Biochemical studies utilizing keloid fibroblast cultures revealed that Nd:YAG laser selectively suppressed collagen production by these cells. Based on these in vitro observations. eight patients with keloids were treated with Nd:YAG laser in a nondestructive manner. Results, with a 3-year follow-up
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 resista
## Abstract The use of the CO~2~ laser in liver surgery is mainly limited by the lack of coagulation of the larger vessels. In an experimental study, partial liver resections were performed on pigs with a Nd:YAG as well as with a combined CO~2~ and Nd: YAG laser. The best cutting efficiency was obt
