✦ Synopsis


New technical advances have made feasible the utilization of low-powered laser energy for constructive applications. Experience with laser bonding of blood vessels, peripheral nerves, and dura has been obtained. These studies are summarized, and the future potential of laser bonding of tissues of the central nervous system is discussed.

Background and Objective: Thermal denaturation of proteins is recognized as a rate process governed by the local temperaturetime response and is believed to be the principal mechanism for photothermal tissue welding. Since rate processes are exponential with temperature, feedback control of tissue s

## Abstract ## Background Laser tissue welding (LTW) is a novel method of surgical wound closure by the use of laser radiation to induce fusion of the biological tissues. Molecular dynamics associated with LTW is a result of thermal and non‐thermal mechanisms. ## Objectives This research focuses
