Relevant parameters for laser surgery of soft tissue.

ABSTRACT: In recent years, the laser has become an important tool in hospitals. Laser surgery in particular has many advantages. However, there is still a lack of the understanding of the influence of the relevant parameters for laser surgery. In order to fill this gap, the parameters pulse frequency, use of an exhaustion system, air cooling, laser power, laser scan speed, laser line energy and waiting time between cuts were analysed by ANOVA using inter-animal variation as a benchmark. The quality of the cuts was quantized by a previously published scoring system. A total of 1710 cuts were performed with a [Formula: see text] laser. Of the parameters investigated, laser power and scan speed have the strongest influence. Only the right combination of these two parameters allows good results. Other e
