Laser ablation is one of the best alternatives to invasive procedures like craniotomies (temporarily removing a piece of the skull to access the brain during surgery). Laser ablation is extremely ...

Endovenous ablation is a nonsurgical procedure that uses radiofrequency waves or a laser to seal varicose veins. The method is minimally invasive and typically has a shorter recovery time and lower ...

Selective ablation By using a laser wavelength that matches the collagen absorption peak, researchers could selectively ablate pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma without harming healthy tissue.

Parylene is a conformal coating widely used in the medical device and microelectronics industries. It has many highly desirable characteristics: chemical resistance, biocompatibility, thermal ...
