Term
What elements of a laser are important for: tissue target specificity Selective photothermolysis Thermokinetic selectivity |
|
Definition
Tissue target specificity: Selective photothermolysis: - specific wavelength targeting the chromophore,
- pulse duration shorter than the thermal relaxation time of the chromophore
Thermokinetic selectivity - Pulse duration longer than the TRT of the competing chromophores
- Sufficient energy to injure target-
- Slow heating
- Cooling of tissue
