  • Ho: YAG laser radiation is well absorbed by the water contained in the tissues. Thankss to the small depth of radiation penetration and the independence of absorption from the type of tissue, contact dissection, vaporization and ablation of tissues using Ho: YAG lasers are effective procedures in the treatment of a number of diseases. The strong absorption of radiation by the substance of the stone and the water present in them allows the use of such lasers also in the fragmentation of stones in the ICD. However, the need to use high pulse energies of up to 2.5 J for pulse durations of up to several hundred microseconds and the thermal mechanism of stone destruction create a high risk of damage to the tissues surrounding the stone, and therefore the scope of such devices should be recognized as limited.

Since the kinetics of the development of pump processes in an Nd: YAG crystal is approximately 30 times faster than the kinetics of the development of processes in an alexandrite crystal, controlling a resonator with an Nd: YAG crystal becomes even more difficult.
