Abstract

A comprehensive experimental study of mid-IR laser tissue ablation within the water absorption peak is presented. A novel all-solid-state table-top sub-ns mid-IR laser designed for efficient tissue ablation have been used for observation of wavelength-dependent effects on the ablation of hard and soft tissue.
