Laser ablation system for tissue ablation
A system for ablation of tissue has at least a guideplate having a front surface and a rear surface. The guideplate has multiple guideholes distributed over the front surface and passing from the front surface to the rear surface. The at least three longitudinally advancing laser emitters are on elongated supports. The at least three longitudinally advancing laser emitters on elongated supports have a diameters that allow their passage through the guideholes on the guideplate. Each of the three laser emitters has a projection area for emission of laser energy; and the projection areas for each of the three laser emitters overlapping only a portion of the projection areas for at least two others of the three laser emitters when the at least three laser emitters lie within a single geometric plane. Moving the laser emitters while active devascularizes changing volumes of tumor tissue.
LITHOTRIPSY SYSTEMS WITH DISPERSED LASER NODES
A laser lithotripsy system to deliver laser energy from one or more laser sources to a stone (e.g., mobile calculus), the system including a capture portion, a first laser node and a second laser node. The capture portion configured to be movable from a stored state to a deployed state. In the deployed state, the capture portion is configured to at least partially surround the stone. The first laser node and the second laser node are coupled to the capture portion and are configured to deliver the laser energy to the stone, and the first laser node is spaced apart from the second laser node.
MULTI-CORE FIBER FOR A MULTI-SPOT LASER PROBE
The present disclosure relates to a multi-core optical fiber cable (MCF). In some embodiments, an MCF comprises a plurality of cores surrounded by a cladding and a coating surrounding the cladding, wherein a refractive index of one or more of the plurality of cores is greater than a refractive index of the cladding. The MCF further comprises a probe comprising a probe tip coupled with a distal end of the MCF and a lens located at a distal end of the probe tip. In some embodiments, the lens is configured to translate laser light from the distal end of the MCF to create a multi-spot pattern of laser beams on a target surface and a distal end of the MCF terminates at an interface with the lens.
FRACTIONAL HANDPIECE WITH A PASSIVELY Q-SWITCHED LASER ASSEMBLY
A fractional handpiece and systems thereof for skin treatment include a passively Q-switched laser assembly operatively connected to a pump laser source to receive a pump laser beam having a first wavelength and a beam splitting assembly operable to split a solid beam emitted by the passively Q-switched laser assembly and form an array of micro-beams across a segment of skin. The passively Q-switched laser assembly generates a high power sub-nanosecond pulsed laser beam having a second wavelength.
OPHTHALMIC PROBE ASSEMBLY WITH FLAT WALL TUBE
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a probe comprising a tube, wherein one or more optical fibers extend at least partially through the tube for transmitting at least one of a laser light and an illumination light from a light source to a target location. A distal end of the tube comprises a flat-walled morphology, and a protective window with a round edge is press-fit to the distal end. The flat-walled morphology of the distal end of the tube has a reduced diametric interference sensitivity, thus allowing a wider range of tolerances between the window and the tube walls for effective press-fitting.
Laser system delivering ultra-short pulses along multiple beam delivery paths
A laser system includes a laser source generating a laser beam having ultra-short pulses; a laser delivery assembly optically receiving the laser beam and comprising: a beam splitter configured to split the laser beam between a first beam delivery path and a second beam delivery path; and at least one focusing lens optically coupled to the beam splitter and configured to focus the laser beam from each of the first beam delivery path and the second beam delivery path to a focal point on a predefined plane; wherein the first beam delivery path intersects the predefined plane at a first angle, the second beam delivery path intersects the predefined plane at a second angle, and a first pulse from the first beam delivery path and a second pulse from the second beam delivery path are coincident at the focal point.
Thermally robust laser probe assembly
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a thermally robust laser probe assembly comprising a cannula, wherein one or more optical fibers extend at least partially through the cannula for transmitting laser light from a laser source to a target location. The probe assembly further comprises a lens housed in the cannula and a protective component press-fitted to the distal end of the cannula, wherein the lens is positioned between the one or more optical fibers and the protective component.
MULTIPLE BEAM LASER TREATMENT DEVICE
Embodiments of the invention include a treatment device and corresponding treatment method for laser wound healing, the device and method making use of the simultaneous action of multiple laser types and laser wavelengths which are applied at human tissue. The treatment device generally includes a laser system and a hand-piece which is coupled to the laser system. The hand-piece is designed so that one or multiple laser beams are applied at relatively small spot and at a relatively high power level, and are surrounded by a relatively large spot of another laser beam with a relatively low power level. In a preferred implementation, the hand-piece is adapted to facilitate the emission of first and second laser beams together with a third laser beam which is delivered at a different spatial profile in comparison to the first and second laser beams.
