Abstract

A surgical laser tool for performing a laser procedure at a treatment site is provided. The surgical laser tool includes a laser source, a fiber catheter, and an analytical device. The laser source is configured to generate laser energy. The fiber catheter is configured to (i) acquire optical feedback from the treatment site and (ii) deliver the laser energy to the treatment site. The analytical device is configured to analyze reflected light from the treatment site in order to allow a physician to perform a diagnosis on the treatment site.

Description

Background technique [0001] Laser surgery can be used as an alternative to traditional surgical tools because it reduces bleeding, pain and infection. Patients following laser surgery generally require less hospital stay. Furthermore, surgical lasers delivered by fibers can be easily combined with compact and flexible endoscopy. However, laser surgery relies on vaporization or ablation of tissue. After surgery, it is difficult to collect enough tissue samples for further histopathological analysis, which is currently considered the gold standard for definitive diagnosis of many diseases, such as cancer. For this reason, laser surgery is still not widely used in many clinical settings. Contents of the invention [0002] Embodiments of the invention relate to a surgical laser tool for performing laser surgery at a treatment site and methods of diagnosing and treating a patient at the treatment site. Some embodiments of a surgical laser tool include a laser source, a fiber ...
