Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We investigate ultrashort laser pulses for orthopedic surgery upon two species of fresh, unaltered bone. Ablation thresholds and rates are determined and we explore non-conventional beam types to optimize ablation efficiency and feature properties.
