Ultralow radiant exposure of a short-pulsed laser to disrupt melanosomes with localized thermal damage through a turbid medium
Abstract Short-pulsed lasers can treat dermal pigmented lesions through selective photothermolysis. The irradiated light experiences multiple scattering by the skin and is absorbed by abnormal melanosomes as well as by normal blood vessels above the target. Because the fluence is extremely high, the...
