It will be used as a laser scalpel, and also for cutting and engraving composite materials. The results of the study have been published in Optics Letters. Read also Russian scientists develop ...

Surgical lasers are instruments that use light in place of a scalpel to cut or treat tissue. A surgical laser is commonly used in eye surgery to correct vision or to reshape the cornea.

A laser is a very thin, focused beam of light that heats and destroys tissue. Lasers can focus very accurately on tiny areas. Doctors can use lasers: instead of blades (scalpels) for surgery to heat ...

While electrocautery operates at high temperatures, around 65-80 degrees Celsius, laser works at a cooler range, causing minimal thermal damage. It's like using a sharp scalpel in a world of ...
