Long Exposure Growth of In-Vivo Interstitial Laser Photocoagulation Lesions
Abstract
Abstract. An investigation of the temperature response and growth of thermal lesions resulting from in vivo, interstitial laser photocoagulation at long exposures was conducted to assess extended lesion growth characteristics and test the applicability of first order unimolecular rate kinetics (Arrhenius theory) to thermal lesion growth. Irradiations were performed in vivo in rabbit muscle using a continuous 805 nm diode laser source operating …
