Amado B Carino

US Patent:

20130085486, Apr 4, 2013

Filed:

Oct 3, 2012

Appl. No.:

13/633967

Inventors:

Vladimir Netchitailo, JR. - Livermore CA, US
Amado Carino - Laguna Beach CA, US

Assignee:

BIOLASE, INC. - Irvine CA

International Classification:

A61B 18/22

US Classification:

606 16

Abstract:

Provided is a surgical handpiece for providing an electromagnetic cutting blade. The handpiece, comprises a body portion having an input end and an output end, a plurality of optical fibers for receiving laser energy having a wavelength within a predetermined wavelength range, wherein the optical fibers are received in the body portion at the input end and extend to the output end, and an optical fiber transition region within the body portion for arranging the plurality of optical fibers into a predetermine cutting shape at the output end, wherein laser energy transmitted from the arranged optical fibers at the output end interact with water molecules near the surgical target to generate micro-explosions that result in a cutting effect.

Appl. No.:

16/197172

Inventors:

- Irvine CA, US
Vladimir Netchitailo - Livermore CA, US
Amado Carino - Laguna Beach CA, US

International Classification:

A61B 18/20
A61N 5/06

Abstract:

Embodiments of the invention include a treatment device and corresponding treatment method for laser wound healing, the device and method making use of the simultaneous action of multiple laser types and laser wavelengths which are applied at human tissue. The treatment device generally includes a laser system and a hand-piece which is coupled to the laser system. The hand-piece is designed so that one or multiple laser beams are applied at relatively small spot and at a relatively high power level, and are surrounded by a relatively large spot of another laser beam with a relatively low power level. In a preferred implementation, the hand-piece is adapted to facilitate the emission of first and second laser beams together with a third laser beam which is delivered at a different spatial profile in comparison to the first and second laser beams.
