Abstract: A safe connection system for coupling radiation from radiation sources, such as lasers, into optical fibers is provided. The system prevents the accidental use of standard optical fibers with radiation sources that require fibers capable of transmitting high power or other radiation with unique characteristics. Because often the fibers for use with high power lasers, for example, may also be used with standard lasers, the system preserves the interchangeability of standard connection systems such as SMA by providing connectors that can properly fit both in standard receptacles and in the receptacles of the present invention. Thus, this connection system preserves the advantages of a standard laser-fiber connection system while increasing the safety of such systems, where it is necessary.
Abstract translation: 提供了用于将辐射源（例如激光器）的辐射耦合到光纤中的安全连接系统。 该系统防止意外使用具有需要能够传输具有独特特性的高功率或其他辐射的光纤的辐射源的标准光纤。 因为通常用于大功率激光器的光纤也可以与标准激光器一起使用，所以该系统通过提供可以适当地适合于标准插座和插座的插座中的标准连接系统（例如SMA）的互换性来保持 本发明。 因此，该连接系统保持标准激光光纤连接系统的优点，同时在需要时增加这种系统的安全性。

Abstract: The present invention provides a mechanical lock for securing one or more filters within a filtration device and methods for producing the mechanical lock. The use of an interference fit punch causes a portion of the inner surface of the wall to be skived and rolled along the wall until it reaches the desired location where it forms a mechanical crimp to retain the one or more filters within the device. In one embodiment, the inner surface has an inwardly taper. In the other, it has straight walls or outwardly tapered walls. The use of a gasket such as an O-ring on top of the filter before the wall is skived provides a liquid tight seal.

Abstract: A telescope design having an integrated baffle is disclosed herein. The integrated baffle is configured as both a baffle and a mirror support. The integrated baffle can be shaped to the F-cone between the primary and secondary mirrors of a given telescope design. The baffle design can be adjusted to minimize or otherwise reduce the total obscuration of the baffle to improve the optical throughput. The interior facing surfaces of the integrated baffle can be configured with corner reflectors, so that the detector views itself, instead of the baffle.

Abstract: An adapter for endoscopic treatments has a fiber constraint device that is set at a desired maximum fiber retraction distance, and provides a physical barrier to prevent excessive fiber retraction into the endoscope. The restricted retraction prevents the fiber from firing within the endoscope, thus avoiding expensive damage to both the endoscope and fiber. This benefits the patient with potentially shorter treatment time and less exposure to anesthesia. The adapter also limits maximum extension of fibers. Limiting maximum extension protects the fiber tip and avoids patient complications. The adapter is securely attached to the optical fiber with a connecting means. When using directionally radiating fiber tips, fiber orientation can be defined and the fiber can be rotated relative to the initial angular position of the fiber tip.
Abstract translation: 用于内窥镜治疗的适配器具有设置在期望的最大光纤回缩距离处的纤维约束装置，并且提供物理屏障以防止过多的纤维缩回到内窥镜中。 限制回缩防止纤维在内窥镜内点燃，从而避免对内窥镜和纤维的昂贵损坏。 这有利于患者治疗时间更短，麻醉时更少。 适配器还限制纤维的最大延伸。 限制最大延伸保护纤维尖端，避免患者并发症。 适配器用连接装置牢固地连接到光纤上。 当使用定向辐射光纤尖端时，可以限定纤维取向并且纤维可以相对于纤维尖端的初始角位置旋转。

Abstract: The present invention describes a multi-component handpiece that is both economical and practical for surgical laser treatment. A disposable optical fiber is inserted into a reusable handpiece. The distal end of the optical fiber is protected by a micro-walled protective tube to prevent the disposable fiber from chipping before and during insertion into the handpiece. Once the optical fiber is protected, it is inserted into the handpiece by threading the optical fiber through the cap, body, and cannula of the handpiece until the fiber extends slightly beyond the distal end of the needle. The micro-walled protective tube is removed from the end of the optical fiber, the optical fiber is positioned, and the cap is tightened. The cap and body of the handpiece cooperate to produce a tight friction fit that prevents longitudinal movement of the optical fiber during laser therapy. The tight friction fit holds the optical fiber in place without the use of adhesives, which allows for facilitated removal of the disposable fiber after use. Furthermore, a disposable fiber allows for convenient resterilization of the handpiece to eliminate the transmission of disease from one patient to the next without having to dispose of the entire handpiece following every laser procedure.
Abstract translation: 本发明描述了一种多组分手机，其经济且实用于外科激光治疗。 将一次性光纤插入可重复使用的手持件中。 光纤的远端由微型壁保护管保护，以防止一次性光纤在插入手机之前和插入手机中。 一旦光纤受到保护，通过将光纤穿过手持件的帽，主体和套管，将其插入到手持件中，直到纤维稍微延伸超过针的远端。 从光纤端部取出微小的保护管，定位光纤，盖子被拧紧。 手柄的盖子和主体配合以产生紧密的摩擦配合，防止光纤在激光治疗期间的纵向移动。 紧密的摩擦配合将光纤保持在适当位置，而不需要使用粘合剂，这允许在使用后有助于去除一次性纤维。 此外，一次性纤维允许方便地对手持件进行再生，以消除疾病从一个患者传播到下一个患者，而不必在每个激光程序之后处理整个手持件。

Abstract: A telescope design is disclosed that has at least some of its interior facing surfaces configured with corner reflectors, so that a detector operatively coupled to the telescope views itself, instead of those surfaces. The corner reflectors may be on, for example, interior facing surfaces of a conventional baffle appended to the telescope and/or minor supports or other structures inside the telescope housing that are within the detector's FOV. Likewise, the corner reflectors may be on interior facing surfaces of a baffle that is integrated into the telescope housing. In some such cases, the integrated baffle can be configured as both a baffle and a mirror support. The integrated baffle can be shaped to the F-cone between minors of a given telescope design, and/or configured to minimize or otherwise reduce the total obscuration of the baffle to improve the optical throughput.

Abstract: A device and method are presented that allow for accurate insertion, positioning and withdrawal of a laser fiber/catheter for minimally invasive laser treatment by utilizing a single mark in the form of a continuous spiral on either a fiber jacket or a catheter (introducer) or both. Viewed from a fixed position the frequency of the appearance of the line can be used to regulate the speed of withdrawal either manually, automatically or through a combination of both, i.e., visual speed feedback and manual withdrawal, automatic speed feedback and manual pullback or automatic feedback and withdrawal. The distal spiral end terminates preferentially in a circumferential loop at some distance back from the distal tip of the catheter or fiber jacket to serve as a safety marker to indicate when to stop lasing during withdrawal to prevent accidental exposure of the patient or attending hospital personnel. Additionally, approaching the distal end, the spiral line can change in color, hue, thickness or some other feature to better provide advanced warning of the approaching fiber end
