β¦ Synopsis
We evaluated the in vitro effects of the 1.3 u wavelength of a Nd:YAG laser using a fiberoptic delivery system, with or without sapphire tips on ocular tissue. Conjunctival and retinal adhesions were achieved best with a noncontact technique compared with a contact method.

## Background and objectives: Lasers are now used for intraoral, soft tissue procedures. the effects of nd:yag probes on cutting efficiency and temperature rise were evaluated in vitro. ## Study design/materials and methods: Three hundred twenty-micron 400-microns, 500-microns, and 600-microns pr
The effects of three lasers, Argon, Nd:YAG, and Argon-pumped Dye, on three types of platelet preparations were evaluated. Either EDTA or buffered citrate served as anticoagulants. Platelets separated from plasma and suspended in buffer showed no decrease in counts following lasering, but morphologic
