Embodiment

[0251] Utilizes CO operating at 10.6 microns 2 A laser system performs the surgical removal of multiple parts of the larynx from the dog. The photonic crystal fiber used in this process has a hollow core with a diameter of approximately 550 microns. The fiber has a helical confinement region comprising approximately 20 PES / As 2 Se 3 Radial section of a double layer. The thickness of the double layer is approximately 3 microns, and the thickness ratio is approximately 2 to 1 (PES to As 2 Se 3 ). The cladding of the fiber is formed of PES, and the OD of the fiber is approximately 1500 microns. The optical fiber is 1.5 meters long.

[0252] A complete en bloc glottic laryngectomy, which includes a cordectomy, is performed. Laser radiation is delivered using a photonic crystal fiber with a semi-rigid handpiece. Insert the handpiece and pass it through the rigid laryngoscope. The power input into the fiber is approximately 20 watts. The radiant power output from the fibe...

Abstract

In general, in one aspect, the invention features systems, including a photonic crystal fiber including a core extending along a waveguide axis and a dielectric confinement region surrounding the core, the dielectric confinement region being configured to guide radiation along the waveguide axis from an input end to an output end of the photonic crystal fiber. The systems also includes a handpiece attached to the photonic crystal fiber, wherein the handpiece allows an operator to control the orientation of the output end to direct the radiation to a target location of a patient.
