In certain embodiments, an ophthalmic surgical system for performing a surgical procedure on an eye comprises a laser device, a camera, and a computer. The laser device comprises a laser source and a scanner. The laser source generates a laser beam comprising pulses, and the scanner directs the pulses towards tissue of the eye according to a laser focal spot pattern. The camera captures surgical images of the eye. The computer instructs the laser device to direct the pulses towards the eye according to the laser focal spot pattern, accesses and monitor the surgical images of the eye, identifies an interfering object from the surgical images of the eye, and modifies the control of the pulses to compensate for the interfering object.

An extracorporeal shock wave lithotripter and a charging and discharging circuit for an extracorporeal shock wave lithotripter are disclosed. The charging circuit is formed by a resistor and a capacitor, and the discharging circuit is formed by the capacitor, a high-voltage switch and a shock wave source apparatus. The capacitance of the capacitor is 1.5 F2.5 F, the pressure peak value of the focus of shock waves generated by discharging to the shock wave source apparatus by the capacitor is 6 Mpa30 MPa, a positive pressure period of the bottom pulse width is 3 s and a negative pressure period is 5 s.

In one embodiment of the present invention, a method of applying ultrasonic energy to a treatment site within a patient's vasculature comprises positioning an ultrasound radiating member at a treatment site within a patient's vasculature. The method further comprises activating the ultrasound radiating member to produce pulses of ultrasonic energy at a cycle period T1 second. The acoustic parameters such as peak power, pulse width, pulse repetition frequency and frequency or any combination of them can be varied non-linearly.
