    Abstract: A combination handpiece and surgical laser tool is disclosed for use in laser surgery. The handpiece comprises a hollow body having an internal wall which is mounted about the probe of the laser tool. A layer which contains optical fibers is mounted about the internal wall with the fibers have outlet ends at the tip of the handpiece. A light source directs visible white light along the fibers with the light being projected in a pattern which illuminates a portion of an anatomical structure in a path about a spot at which the laser beam impinges. In one embodiment a handpiece is releasably fitted about the laser tool so that the handpiece can be detached and used as a flashlight to explore the wound. In another embodiment the optical fibers are formed into discrete clusters which are spaced about the circumference of the annular layer of the handpiece. Visible light can then be projected from the clusters in discrete spots about the laser beam.

    Abstract: A medical laser delivery system usable to transmit laser energy from a laser energy source to a surgical site of a patient. The delivery system includes a handpiece adapted for rotatable coupling to a delivery arm coupled to the laser energy source such that the handpiece is rotatable about its longitudinal axis with respect to the delivery arm. A distal delivery system is coupled to the handpiece and delivers laser energy to the surgical site when the laser energy source is actuated. The handpiece includes a handpiece body adapted for rotatable coupling to the delivery arm and a handpiece head coupled to both the handpiece body and the distal delivery system. The handpiece head can be rotatably coupled to the handpiece body. In one embodiment, the handpiece head is angularly oriented at a fixed angle with respect to the handpiece body. In an alternative embodiment, the handpiece head is pivotally coupled to the body such that the handpiece head may be adjusted to various angles with respect to the handpiece body, such pivotal coupling preferably being accomplished by a ball and socket joint. A removable fiber extension is positioned within the handpiece and transmits laser energy from a fiber in the delivery arm to the distal delivery system. The distal delivery system includes an interchangeable delivery tip through which the laser energy is delivered to the surgical site. The tip can be a solid or hollow fiber of various sizes and shapes.

    Abstract: A method and device are provided for directing laser radiation to a body cavity site. A hollow, elongate, optical fiber is advanced, usually in a containing device, to the vicinity of the site and coupled to a laser source with a distal end region of the fiber extending along a longitudinal axis. The fiber terminates in an energy delivery surface for emitting laser radiation transmitted by the fiber. The radiation is intercepted at a location axially aligned with the energy delivery surface and is reflected in a beam radiating substantially transversely of, and substantially circumferentially around, the axis. A reflector member or block is provided for reflecting the radiation and is mounted in an open end of the catheter at a selected axial position along the axis. A fluid, such as a flushing fluid, can be directed between the end of the fiber, against the reflector member, and to the body site.

    Abstract: An optical system for use in a medical laser apparatus comprising an achromat having optical elements selected to cause two substantially different wavelengths, one visible and one infrared, to focus at a common focal point. The achromat comprises a negative lens and a doublet lens formed of a positive bi-convex lens and a negative meniscus lens. The materials of the two lenses which form the doublet have substantially different dispersions and indices of refraction and are chosen to cause a visible helium neon beam and an infrared carbon dioxide beam to focus at the same point. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the negative lens is made of zinc selenide, the bi-convex lens of the doublet is made of potassium chloride, and the negative meniscus is made of zinc selenide. The optical system of the present invention can be mounted in a micromanipulator for use in laser surgery. The visible helium neon beam is used as an aiming beam to establish a spot at which the carbon dioxide beam also focuses. The carbon dioxide beam is then employed to vaporize biotic material. A distal end of an articulated arm may couple with the micromanipulator to direct the carbon dioxide beam from the laser through a waveguide and into the micromanipulator. Another aspect of the invention includes introducing the aiming beam into the waveguide through a dichroic mirror positioned in a knuckle joint of the articulated arm. In one embodiment, a laser diode generates the visible light of the aiming beam, and is disposed proximate to the distal end of the articulated arm.
