Why Laser Surgery?
The veterinary laser provides the surgeon with improved hemostasis while significantly reducing the pain and swelling due to its unique properties. Using endoscopic, laparoscopic, and other minimally invasive methods, fiber directed laser energy (Diode and Ho:YAG) has been used to treat diseases of the upper and lower GI tract, including benign polyps, gastric ulcers, and intestinal neoplasia.

A multitude of types of laser exist today. They exploit the excitation and emission capacities of a variety of materials in the solid, liquid, gaseous, with semiconductors, or so-called chemical state. Each one possesses a different wavelength, different emission modes, and efficiency, depending on the materials used and their physical-chemical characteristics..
