Concept of a novel laser probe for minimal invasive applications in neurosurgery

The design is described of a novel stereotactic probe for minimal invasive, laser-based treatment of deep seated brain lesions. The probe is coupled to a Nd:YLF laser system which generates laser pulses with a pulse width of only a few picoseconds. These pulses initiate a plasma-induced tissue ablat...
