Abstract: | A method for the calculation of blocking blood flow upon treatment of vessel pathologies by laser irradiation at a wavelength of 530 nm are considered. The model is based on the assumption that blood-vessel occlusion is a consequence of preceding photothermal coagulation of internal layers of the vessel wall. The irradiation regimes are determined that provide homogeneous coagulation of the vessel wall at a minimal energy consumption and high selectivity of action upon irradiation by rectangular laser pulses. |
