MODEL RELEASED. Laser surgery: surgeon working with a hand-held laser,a modern alternative to the traditional scalpel for some surgical procedures. A laser produces an intense beam of light of a specific wavelength,which depends on the type of laser; carbon dioxide,argon,& Neodymium are examples of medical lasers used in different applications. A low-energy laser beam might be used to coagulate bleeding around an ulcer,while a high-power beam can be focused to operate as a fine scalpel. Different lasers are used for removal of skin blemishes (tattoos & port wine stains),for retinal surgery,& for early treatment of cervical cancers | |
