## Abstract ## Background Leg veins can be effectively treated with lasers. However, the optimal pulse duration for small leg veins has not been established in human studies with a Nd:YAG laser. ## Objectives The purpose of this study was to investigate a range of pulse durations to determine an
## Background and Objective: Preliminary results indicate that pulsed dye lasers (PDL) with 1.5 ms pulsewidth and 595 nm wavelength are effective in the treatment of leg telangiectasia. The aim of this study was to evaluate if the clinical results could be improved by a) an effective skin cooling
## Background and Objective: The optimal parameters for treatment of leg telangiectasia with a pulsed laser are investigated. ## Study Design/Materials and Methods: The Monte Carlo method is used to calculate the light penetration and absorption in the epidermis, dermis, and the ectatic blood v
