Laser coagulation and hemostasis of large diameter blood vessels: effect of shear stress and flow velocity

Abstract Photocoagulation of blood vessels offers unambiguous advantages to current radiofrequency approaches considering the high specificity of blood absorption at available laser wavelengths (e.g., 532 nm and 1.064 µm). Successful treatment of pediatric vascular lesions, such as port-wine stains...
