Download or read book Principles and Practice of Gynecologic Laser Surgery written by Joseph H. Bellina and published by Springer. This book was released on 1984-04 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the first applications of lasers was for surgery on the retina of the eye. That, and the evident analogy to the old dreams of powerful heat rays, led many to predict that lasers would quickly be used for all kinds of cutting and welding, including surgical applications. It was soon apparent that laser sur gery could be performed in ways that caused little bleeding. Nevertheless, other surgical applications have been slower to arrive. One difficulty has been the enormous range of possibilities provided by the many different kinds of lasers. Infrared, visible, and ultraviolet light beams each interact very differently with human tissues. Light pulses of enor mously great peak powers became available from lasers, but their effects dif fered in surprising ways from those obtained with continuous beams. That provided both opportunities (i.e., treating or removing a very thin surface layer without affecting the underlying tissue) and problems with undesired side effects. Moreover, techniques were needed to deliver a precisely con trolled amount of energy just where it was desired. Lasers also had to be engineered and manufactured with the desired power levels and a high reliability.

Download or read book Laser Surgery and Medicine written by Carmen A. Puliafito and published by Wiley-Liss. This book was released on 1996-02-21 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past decade, the application of lasers in surgery and medicine has increased dramatically. Recent advances in technology and procedures have brought many changes to the field and created a need for an authoritative, focused reference that both reviews the basic principles of laser medicine and provides detailed coverage of specific applications in various surgical subspecialties. Laser Surgery and Medicine: Principles and Practice assembles work from a diverse group of leading clinicians to offer a comprehensive, integrated survey of the current status and latest innovations in the biomedical uses of lasers. The text comprises papers originally published in the distinguished journal Lasers in Surgery and Medicine and covers such general topics as laser safety, laser welding of tissue, and photodynamic therapy, in addition to targeting nine distinct specialty areas. Chapters addressing surgical specialties feature high-quality illustra tions showing the finer points of essential techniques, as well as reports on current clinical trials, new therapeutic procedures, and relevant aspects of laser biophysics, bioengineering, and photobiology. This book covers the latest laser applications in the following specialties: * Neurosurgery * Dentistry * Otolaryngology * Cardiovascular medicine * Gastroenterology Laser Surgery and Medicine: Principles and Practice is a timely, practical resource designed to provide detailed explanations of equipment and procedures that will satisfy the needs of practitioners in specialized disciplines and serve as a well-rounded overview of the field. An indispensable resource for all clinicians who perform laser procedures, it is also a must for basic scientists and engineers who want to keep up with the latest in biomedical laser applications.

Book excerpt: Written by recognized leaders within the field, this practical text is useful primarily to the clinical gynecologist who performs laser surgery in the lower female genital tract and intra abdominally where applicable. The initial chapters pertain to the basic understanding and applications of laser physics and safety for the clinician. The next section focuses on "how to do it", and the final chapters deal with photodynamic therapy in gynecology, credentialing, and how to establish a laser program. A glossary in the back of the book contains laser terminology as well as scientific notation.

Download or read book Lasers in Gynecology written by Gunther Bastert and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A synopsis of the use of lasers in gynecology is presented in this book; it is supported by more than 10 years of experience and backed up by studies inthe fields of experimental surgery, technical medicine and clinical gynecology. The authors show how laser-assisted preparation hasbroadened the spectrum of operative possibilities in gynecology. Major points of attention are experimental surgery and basic research, details of application with respect to specific indications, and future potential. Furthermore, the clear definition of the possibilities and limitations of laser technology puts an end to the highly stylized view of a patent wonder divorced from general operative standards. Thereis no doubt that users of laser technology stand on the threshold of a promising development and yet, despite the present elegant applications, thefirst steps to maturity are only now being taken.
