An in vitro study of irrigation rate, operator duty cycle and intrarenal temperature in superpulse fiber thulium laser lithotripsy
Maintaining a 1:1 ratio between laser power and irrigation speed can effectively prevent thermal damage or injury to kidney tissue.Additionally, by adjusting the On-Duty Cycle (ODC) ratio, the intrarenal temperature can also be reduced.
