## Background and Objectives : Traumatic transection of a peripheral nerve is inherently associated with the development of neuroma at the end of the proximal stump, often leading to therapyresistant pain. This study was designed to evaluate whether the neodymium:yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) la

## Abstract A dosimetry study of acute tissue damage induced by interstitial application of the neodymiumโyttriumโaluminumโgarnet (Nd:YAG) laser was performed with magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. The MR appearance of the lesion was correlated with gross and histopathologic findings. Seventyโsix le
This report shows that ectopic bone formation, a serious problem in orthopedic surgery, can be controlled in an animal model by local application of EHDP (disodium-ethane-1-hydroxy-1,1-diphosphonate). The results might be particularly pertinent to the clinical problem of preventing the recurrence of
