Sialolithiasis: Application parameters for an optimal laser therapy

Abstract: In‐vitro experimental parametric studies of laser ablation using natural sialoliths and artificial stones have been performed toward an efficient laser treatment of sialolithiasis. Surface microstructure and water adsorption become critical for coupling high power pulsed Ho:YAG laser radiation (λ = 2080 nm, τ ∼250 μsec), inducing ablative interactions and stone fragmentation. Results reveal a generic trend, with single pulse laser energy density threshold for sialolith ablative erosion at ∼200 J cm−2 (correspo… Show more
