Vestibular Schwannomas Microsurgery Assisted by Flexible Hand-Held 2 micro-Thulium-Fiber Laser
Background: Vestibular Schwannoma (VS) is one of the skull base tumors originating from vestibular portion of eighth cranial nerve. Recently, 2 micro-Thulium laser is used in the surgery of some intracranial tumors. Objectives: Assessing the efficacy of 2 micro-Thulium flexible hand-held laser fiber (RevolixjrÒ) in microsurgical removal of VS. Materials and Methods: This retrospect...
متن کاملFlexible pulse-controlled fiber laser
Controlled flexible pulses have widespread applications in the fields of fiber telecommunication, optical sensing, metrology, and microscopy. Here, we report a compact pulse-controlled all-fiber laser by exploiting an intracavity fiber Bragg grating (FBG) system as a flexible filter. The width and wavelength of pulses can be tuned independently by vertically and horizontally translating a canti...
متن کاملComparison of New Single-Use Digital Flexible Ureteroscope Versus Nondisposable Fiber Optic and Digital Ureteroscope in a Cadaveric Model
PURPOSE To evaluate LithoVue, the new single-use digital flexible ureteroscope, in a human cadaveric model and compare it with a nondisposable fiber optic and digital flexible ureteroscopes. MATERIALS AND METHODS LithoVue, a conventional fiber optic, and digital flexible ureteroscopes were each tested in four renal units of recently deceased female cadavers by three surgeons. The following pa...
متن کاملDouble Core Photonic Crystal Fiber
In this study, coupling between two cores in a specific photonic crystal fiber (PCF) structure is investigated via Localized Basis Function (LBF) method. The PCF structure considered here consists of an unbounded periodic cladding and two high index core regions. In the LBF method, a guided mode localized in the core regions and periodic variation of the refractive index in the transverse domai...
متن کاملLaser-induced damage to large core optical fiber by high peak power laser
In this paper we present a study of laser damage to large core multimode glass optical fibers by high peak laser power of up to 175 kW. Fibers samples prepared with polymer coatings having different refractive indices were tested in a twopoint bend tester while transmitting laser light. The peak power used in the experiment clearly differentiated the performance among the samples. A polymer coa...
