Device Description

The IPG Medical Family of Thulium Fiber Lasers, Surgical Fibers and Accessories are portable thulium fiber lasers that generate non-ionizing radiation which is transferred to the relevant anatomical treatment site through surgical fibers. The system includes wireless and wired footswitches for hands-free control, an auxiliary video monitor, a surgical fiber connection port, a touchscreen user interface, and operates on emission wavelengths between 1920 and 1960 nm. It can operate at a maximum power output of 60 watts and a maximum frequency output of 2400 Hz with a maximum pulse energy of 6 Joules. The surgical fibers are flexible optical fibers that deliver the laser energy to the target tissue and are offered in a range of core diameters from 150 microns to 940 microns.
