  • Device and method for the preparation and operation on biological specimen
    Patent number: 11458575
    Abstract: A device for shaping tissue includes a tip with an internal close-looped circulation system. The tip is configured to connect to tubes. One tube is configured to connect to a submersible cold-water pump. Another tube is an outlet. The tip has a sapphire window on one face and, on opposite face, a shaft with a laser fiber therein, and an opening for laser beam to shine through.
    Type: Grant

  • DYNAMIC COOLING OF HUMAN SKIN USING A NONTOXIC CRYOGEN WITH NO OZONE DEPLETION AND MINIMAL GLOBAL WARMING POTENTIAL
    Publication number: 20080071332
    Abstract: An improvement in a method for providing localized cooling of tissue when thermally mediated by electromagnetic radiation comprises directing at least one spurt of a heat transferring substance onto a selected location on the tissue, and preventing ignition of the heat transferring substance by heating from the electromagnetic radiation. Preferably liquid carbon dioxide under pressure is supplied as the heat transferring substance, and adiabatically expanded to provide a solid carbon dioxide spray onto the selected location.
