Holmium:YAG

The multi-functional Holmium Laser is designed for a variety of specialties including urology, orthopedics, ENT, gynecology, and general surgery. The Holmium fragments urinary and bladder stones of all compositions. It contours, smooths, ablates, and can also coagulate vascular and avascular soft tissue. The 2100nm wavelength has a 0.5mm depth of penetration. This allows the laser to have an excellent effect on soft tissue, resulting in better patient outcomes. The energy is delivered through a variety of small diameter disposable and re-useable delivery devices. This allows the physician to have the exact tool needed for every procedure. The pulsed energy that the Holmium delivers minimizes thermal damage by delivering energy 500 times faster than conventional fiber lasers. Additionally, the Holmium is available in a variety of models, from low- to high-powered units allowing it to perform a wide variety of procedures.

Holmium laser ablation of the prostate (HoLAP) and Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) are two options using the Holmium: YAG laser for treating BPH.
