This silly explanation might apply to a discrete, single pulse of CO2, but the rise is continuous and rather smooth. (judithcurry.com)
To achieve a similar PNB lifetime in single pulse mode in the same cells, we had to increase the fluence of the 532 nm pulse to 27 mJ / cm2, a level higher than the summarized fluence of 532 nm and 675 nm pulses (18 mJ / cm2) and also higher than the FDA - approved safety limit. (thno.org)
The described system will use the following algorithms: (1) single pulse guided treatment: the pulse fluence will be automatically maintained to provide the PNB lifetime (size) above the cell ablation threshold. (thno.org)
