Patent Issued for Dual wavelength surgical laser system (USPTO 11996672).

Boston Scientific Scimed Inc. has been issued a patent for a dual wavelength surgical laser system. The patent describes a surgical laser system that can discharge laser energies of different wavelengths for different laser treatments. The system includes an energy source, a gain medium, a non-linear crystal, an output, and path diversion assemblies. The first laser energy is directed along the output path in the first operating mode, while the second laser energy is diverted. In the second operating mode, the second laser energy is directed along the output path, and the first laser energy is diverted. The system can be used for coagulation and vaporization operations in surgical procedures. [Extracted from the article]
