?:definition
  • Neodymium-doped yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd:YAG) lasers, usually operated in continuous-wave or long-pulsed mode, used mainly to cut, excise or vaporize, and coagulate deep tissues. Their laser energy penetrates deep into tissue and is also absorbed by a large volume of tissue, allowing photocoagulation of blood vessels at low-power densities and vaporization of tumors at high-power densities. These lasers are frequently used in laparoscopic and endoscopic surgery.
