Evaluation of pulse modulation settings for optimal pop-dusting efficiency using the Quanta Litho 150 laser: An in vitro study
<i>In vitro</i> laser lithotripsy using a BegoStone phantom, VB at 2J x15 Hz and VT at 2.5 J x 12 Hz were the most efficient setting for pop-dusting with the Quanta Litho 150. The highest efficiency (mg/min) was achieved with VB at 2 J x 15 Hz and VT at 2.5 J x 12 Hz at 1:15 min.
