Soft Tissue Safety Assessment of Pulsed Solid‐State Thulium:YAG Versus Holmium:YAG Lasers: A Quantitative Porcine Model Simulation

open access: yesLasers in Surgery and Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Laser lithotripsy carries an inevitable risk of collateral tissue injury. This study compared the safety profiles of pulsed Holmium:YAG and Thulium:YAG lasers by examining their effects on soft tissue under laser settings relevant to lithotripsy, using ex vivo porcine kidney models.
