In this work,we theoretically unlock the potential of Ho^(3+)-doped InF3 fiber for efficient~3.2μm laser generation(from the ^(5)F_(4),^(5)S_(2)→^(5)F_(5) transition),by employing a novel dual-wavelength pumping sch...
Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of thulium fiber laser(TFL)and holmium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet(Ho:YAG)laser for ureteric stone management with semi-rigid ureteroscopy.Methods:In a prospective study from J...

Objective: Flexible ureteroscopy (fURS) has become a widely accepted and effective technique for treating kidney stones. With the development of new laser systems, the fURS approach has evolved significantly. This lit...
Introduction: Ureteroscopy is a minimally invasive endoscopic surgery which provides access to the ureter, pyelon and calyceal cavities via the urethra and the bladder. Laser ureteroscopy uses the laser as an energy s...

We report an experimental phenomenon of the splitting and merging of the bright-dark pulses(BDPs)in a mode-locked thulium/holmium co-doped fiber laser(THDFL)based on nonlinear polarization rotation(NPR).By adding 100-...
Objective:The holmium:yttrium-aluminium-garnet laser(Ho:YAG)has been the gold standard for laser lithotripsy over the last three decades.After demonstrating good in vitro efficacy,the thulium fiber laser(TFL)has been ...

We propose a 2.1μm high-energy dissipative soliton resonant(DSR)fiber laser system based on a mode-locked seed laser and dual-stage amplifiers.In the seed laser,the nonlinear amplifying loop mirror technique is emplo...
Dear editor,The term“syringocele”originated from Greek words“syringo”meaning tube and“cele”meaning swelling and was first coined by Maizels et al.[1]in 1983 to represent a spectrum of dilatation of the normal Co...
