Comparison of Different Pulse Modulation Modes for Holmium:Yttrium–Aluminum–Garnet Laser Lithotripsy Ablation in a Benchtop Model

Journal of endourology, 2021
Introduction: Manipulation of Holmium:Yttrium–Aluminum–Garnet laser parameters such as pulse energy (PE), frequency, and duration can impact laser lithotripsy ablation efficiency. In 2017, Lumenis introduced Moses™ Technology, which uses pulse modulation

Laser Fiber Displacement Velocity during Tm-Fiber and Ho:YAG Laser Lithotripsy: Introducing the Concept of Optimal Displacement Velocity

Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2021
Background: Endocorporeal laser lithotripsy (EL) during flexible ureteroscopy (URS-f) often uses “dusting” settings with “painting” technique. The displacement velocity of the laser fiber (LF) at the stone surface remains unknown and could improve EL’s ...
