Detailed information on the greenlight power laser
The greenlight laser is in direct
competition with BPH treatment procedures. Methods of thermotherapy,
such as TUNA, TUMT and others, have been used particularly often
in the past. However, these methods have some key disadvantages
compared to the green laser approach.
The picture shows the tissue swelling
following conventional thermotherapy.
The picture gives a visual representation
of tissue vaporization in a greenlight laser treatment and the reduced,
optimally adjustable depth of penetration.
Short films
In the following you can view films which show
the vaporization of prostate tissue through application of the
greenlight power laser beam. The films at the top are animated
sequences, while those at the bottom are actual recordings of
the prostate.
