ENDOTMLASER 1500nmThe ideal alternative to classic surgical stripping of the great and small saphenous veins!• Less painful • Less bruising • Less expensive fibersThe Endo laser 1500nm delivers the optimal wavelength for the endoluminal treatment of varicose veins.The 1500 nm is 1000 times more absorbent in water than 810 nm with this greater specificity requiring lesspower, implying less heat diffusion in surrounding tissue and no undesirable side effects.Only a minimum of local anesthesia is needed, delivered through a sole puncture with patients being ableto walk within 15 minutes of the treatment.Key features:• Wavelength: 1500 nm• Procedure power: 6W• Maximum laser output power: 12 W• Red aiming beam (630 nm) enables visibilityof fiber tip throughout procedure• Small, portable, weighing approx 10kg• Synchronized pull back device available• Fiber tester incorporatedProudly distributed by:18Device Consulting Pty Ltd.
