Comment/Description

The students are enabled to understand basic laser biotissue interaction processes based on the knowledge of optical and thermal properties of biotissue. The students are able to describe the principle function of a laser, distinguish between the different laser types and designs regarding medical laser systems. The students have a basic knowledge on beam guiding techniques, medical applicators, and safety requirements. The students gain an overview on lasers in medicine and a first insight into clinical laser applications via an excursion to a clinic.
