Medtronic Launches Laser Ablation System in European Market

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Medtronic PLC announced the CE (Conformité Européenne) mark and European launch of the Visualase MRI-guided laser ablation system. The Visualase system provides advanced MRI-guided laser ablation technology and can be used in neurosurgery procedures. With the Visualase system, laser energy is delivered to the target area using an applicator. As light is delivered through the applicator, temperatures in the target area begin to rise, destroying the unwanted soft tissue The Visualase procedures are guided by MRI images and provide precise and controlled ablation....Read full article

    laser ablation
    Laser ablation is a process that involves the removal or erosion of material from a target surface using laser energy. This technique is widely used in various scientific, industrial, and medical applications. The intense energy from the laser beam interacts with the material, causing it to undergo physical and chemical changes, ultimately leading to its removal. Key features of laser ablation include: Laser energy: A high-energy laser beam is directed onto the surface of a material. The...
