Designing and Testing a Closed-Loop Magnetically Actuated Laser Scanning System for Tissue Ablation
JOURNAL OF MEDICAL DEVICES-TRANSACTIONS OF THE ASME, 16(2).
TL;DR:
In pre-clinical trials, the physical experimental results showed that the designed prototype laser scanner system accurately track different ablation patterns and gives a consistent output position for the laser beam however, the heat diffusion into the tissue around the desired line of the geometric shape would give wider ablation margins than was desirable.
