Lasers Play a Bigger Role in Biomedical Applications

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Laser diversity is key to widespread penetration in the fast-growing biomedical market.

Arnd Krueger

The laser is now well-established as a critically enabling tool in biomedical applications that range from research and clinical work at the molecular level to direct human applications for medical conditions such as strokes. These techniques employ a wide variety of laser technologies, from humble helium-neon and air-cooled ion lasers to cutting-edge solid-state and ultrafast lasers. Applications also include cell sorting, multiphoton imaging, matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight (Maldi-Tof) for protein analysis, fluorescence analysis in proteomics and genomics,...Read full article
