Use of Holmium Laser for Upper Urinary Calculi and Neoplasms

The VersaPulse PowerSuite system provides unparalleled performance, procedure after procedure. Available in several state-of-the-art configurations, it offers the highest power and widest range of treatment settings available. The laser's speed and precision can be tailored to meet specific surgical needs. Although it is a commonly held belief that low-power holmium lasers are sufficient to treat most urinary stones, many surgeons and hospitals choose to invest in higher powered configurations. It is believed that they choose high power to enable overall faster, more efficient treatments, reduce operating and anesthesia time and to acquire the power for use by other specialties and for future applications. And the combination of high-power holmium and Nd:YAG laser wavelengths in one system enables surgeons to choose holmium for cutting and ablating or Nd:YAG for deeper coagulation for added versatility.

Designed for operation with an extensive selection of reusable and disposable delivery systems, the VersaPulse PowerSuite gives surgeons the edge for virtually every laser procedure.
