2. Laser medicine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_medicine

   Laser radiation being delivered via a fiber for photodynamic therapy to treat cancer. A 40-watt CO 2 laser with applications in ENT, gynecology, dermatology, oral surgery, and podiatry. Laser medicine is the use of lasers in medical diagnosis, treatments, or therapies, such as laser photodynamic therapy, [1] photorejuvenation, and laser surgery.

3. List of laser applications - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_laser_applications

   Laser pointers in different colours. Many scientific, military, medical and commercial laser applications have been developed since the invention of the laser in 1958. The coherency, high monochromaticity, and ability to reach extremely high powers are all properties which allow for these specialized applications.

4. List of laser types - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_laser_types

   Applications and notes Free-electron laser: A broad wavelength range (0.1 nm - several mm); a single FEL may be tunable over a wavelength range Relativistic electron beam: Atmospheric research, material science, medical applications. CO₂ gas dynamic laser: Several lines around 10.5 μm; other frequencies may be possible with different gas ...

5. Laser surgery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_surgery

   Laser surgery is a type of surgery that cuts tissue using a laser in contrast to using a scalpel. [1]Soft-tissue laser surgery is used in a variety of applications in humans (general surgery, neurosurgery, ENT, dentistry, orthodontics, [2] and oral and maxillofacial surgery) as well as veterinary [3] surgical fields.

6. Low-level laser therapy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-level_laser_therapy

   Whereas high-power lasers are used in laser medicine to cut or destroy tissue, it is claimed that application of low-power lasers relieves pain or stimulates and enhances cell function. Described sometimes as Low-level Red-light Therapy (LLRL), has effects that appear to be limited to a specified set of wavelengths and new research has ...

7. Free-electron laser - Wikipedia

   Rox Anderson proposed the medical application of the free-electron laser in melting fats without harming the overlying skin. [42] At infrared wavelengths , water in tissue was heated by the laser, but at wavelengths corresponding to 915, 1210 and 1720 nm , subsurface lipids were differentially heated more strongly than water.
