β¦ Synopsis
This preliminary report d e s c n i the use of interstitial laser photocoagulation to manage small breast cancers. Forty-four patients were treated with a diode laser of 805nm under local anaesthesia in the interval between diagnosis and surgery. Ultrasonography was used in 42

## Background and objective: "minimal treatment strategy" is desirable in certain breast cancer patients. the main objective of the present study is to examine the use of interstitial laser thermotherapy (laserthermia) for this purpose. ## Study design/materials and methods: Thirty-five patients
Two cases of patients with primary osteosarcoma who developed subsequent new primary infiltrating ductal carcinoma of breast are presented. The relationship of irradiation from diagnostic radiology, chemotherapy given, and possible genetic factors are discussed. A recommendation for the lifetime fol
## Background and Objective: This laboratory animal study is a comparison of Nd:YAG 1064 nm and diode 810 nm laser wavelengths in brain interstitial laser photocoagulation (ILP). Specific goals were to identify potential complications and physical characteristics of the thermal damage at both wave
