Initial Clinical Experience with a Modulated Holmium Laser Pulse—Moses Technology: Does It Enhance Laser Lithotripsy Efficacy?
OBJECTIVE The Lumenis® High-power Holmium Laser (120H) has a unique modulated pulse mode, Moses™ technology. Moses technology modulates the laser pulse to separate the water (vapor bubble), then deliver the remaining energy through the bubble. Proprietary laser fibers were designed for the Moses technology. Our aim was to compare stone lithotripsy with and without the Moses technology. METHOD...
متن کاملEnhanced thulium fiber laser lithotripsy using micro-pulse train modulation.
The thulium fiber laser (TFL) is currently being studied as an alternative to the conventional holmium:YAG (Ho:YAG) laser for lithotripsy. The diode-pumped TFL may be electronically modulated to operate with variable parameters (e.g., pulse rate, pulse duration, and duty cycle) for studying the influence of pulse train mode on stone ablation rates. The TFL under study was operated at 1908 nm, 3...
متن کاملUse of the Moses Technology to Improve Holmium Laser Lithotripsy Outcomes: A Preclinical Study
OBJECTIVE To evaluate in vitro and in vivo effects of Moses technology in Holmium laser and to compare it with the Regular mode in terms of lithotripsy efficiency and laser-tissue interactions. METHODS The Lumenis® Pulse™ P120H holmium laser system together with Moses D/F/L fibers were used to compare the Regular mode with the Moses modes in stone retropulsion by using a high-speed camera, an...
متن کاملSystematic evaluation of a holmium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet laser lithotripsy device with variable pulse peak power and pulse duration
Objective The Holmium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Ho:YAG) laser is the standard lithotrite for ureteroscopy. This paper is to evaluate a Ho:YAG laser with a novel effect function in vitro, which allows a real-time variation of pulse duration and pulse peak power. Methods Two types of phantom calculi with four degrees of hardness were made for fragmentation and retropulsion experiments. Fragmenta...
متن کاملIntracorporeal laser lithotripsy
OBJECTIVES To review the current literature on intracorporeal laser lithotripsy. METHODS We searched PubMed for relevant reports up to January 2012, using the keywords 'laser', 'lithotripsy' and 'intracorporeal'. RESULTS We studied 125 relevant reports of studies with various levels of evidence. Efficient lithotripsy depends on the laser variables (wavelength, pulse duration and pulse energ...
