Background and Objective: Thermal relaxation time (t r ) is a commonly-used parameter for estimating the time required for heat to conduct away from a directly-heated tissue region. Previous studies have demonstrated that temperature superposition can occur during multiplepulse irradiation, even if

Percutaneous endoscopic approaches to cholelithiasis would be facilitated by methods for welding gallbladder tissues. We evaluated the bursting pressure and histologic appearance of canine gallbladder tissue welded with a thulium-holmiumchromium:YAG (THC:YAG) laser producing a 2.15 pm pulsed output.
