About this document

Advances in Biomedical Lasers is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document discusses biomedical applications of lasers, particularly femtosecond lasers. It notes that femtosecond lasers allow for more precise cutting than nanosecond lasers in surgery. The biggest advantage of ultrafast lasers in surgery is limiting damage to surrounding biological tissue. Various laser sources are discussed, including Nd:YAG and CO2 lasers, as well as their interactions and effects on tissue via thermal, photochemical and ablation mechanisms.
