Confocal thermal-lens microscope.
The use of a confocal detection scheme in a dual-beam thermal-lens microscope is presented. The scheme allows the measurement of absorption factors down to 1.2 x 10(-7) in a 0.35-microm3 volume by use of a heating laser power of 100 mW incident upon the sample. Results are presented that prove that a 450-nm axial resolution is possible when a 1.2 water immersion objective lens with a N.A. of 1....
متن کاملLaser differential confocal lens refractive index measurement.
A new laser differential confocal lens refractive index measurement is proposed, which uses the absolute zero of the differential confocal axial intensity curve to precisely identify the positions of the objective when the measurement pencil is focused on the vertex of the test lens and the reflector with or without the test lens in the measurement light-path, and then uses aberration compensat...
متن کامل[Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy for urinary tract stones using piezoelectric lithotripter (Piezolith)].
A total of 133 stones in renoureteral and bladder units from 122 patients, 8 to 80 years old, were treated by extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) with the Wolf Piezolith device from November 1989 through December 1990. The 133 stones involved renal stones (91), ureter stones (34) and bladder stones (9). The number of shock waves per session was up to 4,000 shots, the mean number of sho...
متن کاملImproving the lens design and performance of a contemporary electromagnetic shock wave lithotripter.
The efficiency of shock wave lithotripsy (SWL), a noninvasive first-line therapy for millions of nephrolithiasis patients, has not improved substantially in the past two decades, especially in regard to stone clearance. Here, we report a new acoustic lens design for a contemporary electromagnetic (EM) shock wave lithotripter, based on recently acquired knowledge of the key lithotripter field ch...
متن کاملMiniature objective lens with variable focus for confocal endomicroscopy.
Spectrally encoded confocal microscopy (SECM) is a reflectance confocal microscopy technology that can rapidly image large areas of luminal organs at microscopic resolution. One of the main challenges for large-area SECM imaging in vivo is maintaining the same imaging depth within the tissue when patient motion and tissue surface irregularity are present. In this paper, we report the developmen...
