PULSATING LASER AND METHOD OF CONTROL THEREOF

Abstract

A laser ablation system is disclosed. The laser system comprises a laser cavity; a gain medium; a pump; a scanner; and a controller configured to: receive, a system pulse frequency; receive a desired pulse frequency; calculate, based on the system pulse frequency and the desired pulse frequency, a number of points to be included in a grid wherein each point corresponds to a location of a pulse; receive at least one of: a size of a treatment area, a shape of the treatment area, and the required pulse density; determine the number of grids required for covering the treatment area and locations of the pulses in each grid based on the received size of the treatment area, shape of the treatment area, and the required pulse density; and control the pump and the scanner to provide laser pulse to all locations in each grid.
