The ablation of atherosclerotic lesions without collateral thermal or shock wave damage is thought to be a key element for successful laser angioplasty. This study evaluated the effectiveness of pulsed ho1mium:YAG laser (2.1 pm wavelength) for this application. Fresh normal tissue (n = 139) and arte

Ablation efficiency and residual thermal damage produced by pulsed holmium laser radiation were investigated in vitro for bovine mitral valves and human calcified and noncalcified cardiac valves. Low-OH quartz fibers (200 and 600 pm core diameter) were used in direct contact perpendicular to the spe

To assess the feasibility of intra-arterial tissue ablation by Holmium:YSGG laser pulses (2.1 pm) in a noncontact mode, the transmission of the laser pulses through saline and blood was measured. The temporal interaction between the 500 p s laser pulse and saline at the fiber tip was investigated wi

## Abstract ## Background and Objective High intensity infrared light from the pulsed Nd:YAG dental laser is absorbed by carious enamel and not absorbed by healthy enamel. Consequently, this system has potential for selective removal of surface enamel caries. Safety and efficacy of the clinical pr
