Abstract

Laser applications in medicine and surgery have been started by using high power to coagulate, to vaporarize the biological tissues — it means by use of thermal effect. Next application of laser is considered to be using pressure effect to destruct biological stone by application of short pulse laser. Recently, the use of low power is becoming one of the topics of laser applications in medicine.
