Four sets of in vitro experiments have been performed to study the effect of pulse YAG-Nd laser inserted into a quartz lightguide on gall-stones and walls of gall ducts. The consistent destruction of stones has been demonstrated no matter what their dimensions and chemical compositions. The method is believed to be safe for clinical usage.

A passively Q-switched sub-nanosecond master oscillator power amplifier (MOPA) laser system at 1064 nm has been reported in this paper. The master oscillator was a passively Q-switched YAG/Nd:YAG/Cr:YAG microchip laser, yielding a pulse energy of 0.14 mJ and a pulse width of ∼490 ps at repetition rates of 500 Hz and 1 kHz.
