Same-day Laser treatments show tattoo clearance benefit, but with diminishing return
Dermatology Times, 2012Co-Authors: Cheryl Guttman KraderAbstract:Repetitive same-day treatment with a nanosecond pulsed, Q-switched Laser increases tattoo ink clearance and is safe, but the magnitude of improvement does not appear to increase linearly with the number of treatments, reported Suzanne L. Kilmer, M.D., at Laser 2012, the 32nd annual American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery conference.

Lasers take up residence in the surgical suite
IEEE Circuits and Devices Magazine, 1992Co-Authors: G.h. PettitAbstract:The fundamental Laser/tissue interaction, in which Laser light with a time-dependent intensity propagates into a biological tissue where it is absorbed and scattered is described. The uses of Laser radiation for detection and treatment of cancer, tissue imaging, tissue ablation, angioplasty, and in ophthalmology are discussed. Ongoing research efforts in Laser Medicine are outlined. >

pubmed sciencedirect scopus or google scholar which is the best search engine for an effective literature research in Laser Medicine
Medical Laser Application, 2011Co-Authors: Markus ToberAbstract:Summary The four most popular search engines PubMed/MEDLINE, ScienceDirect, Scopus and Google Scholar are investigated to assess which search engine is most effective for literature research in Laser Medicine. Their search features are described and the results of a performance test are compared according to the criteria (1) recall, (2) precision, and (3) importance. As expected, the search features provided by PubMed/MEDLINE with a comprehensive investigation of medical documents are found to be exceptional compared to the other search engines. However the most effective search engine for an overview of a topic is Scopus, followed by ScienceDirect and Google Scholar. With regard to the criterion “importance” Scopus and Google Scholar are clearly more successful than their competitors.

History of the World Federation of Societies for Laser Medicine and Surgery (WFSLMS) and its Non-Profit Organization (NPO-WFSLMS) Part 1: Origins to Inaugural Meeting, 2005
Laser therapy, 2014Co-Authors: Toshio OhshiroAbstract:Background and Aims: The first society formed to represent the “new” field of Laser applications in Medicine and surgery was the late Professor Kaplan's International Society for Laser Surgery and Medicine, held in Israel in 1975. Following the ISLSM lead, a large number of national and international societies were very swiftly formed. As the number grew, it became obvious that some sort of linking forum would help all these separate societies to pool the knowledge of their members for the good of the clinicians and their patients. The World Federation of Societies for Laser Medicine and Surgery was formed to attempt to fill this role. The History: At the 1996 meeting of the Greek Medical Laser Association, the first international forum of representatives from 17 international and national Laser societies was convened by Professor Nick Nicolopoulos, and the seed of an idea for a centralized forum to help separate Laser societies coordinate efforts and knowledge was planted. This seed was nurtured by the ISLSM as the first medical Laser society, and forums were called together at each meeting of the ISLSM and the other related societies from 1997 to 2003. At the 2004 Chinese Medical Laser Society meeting, the idea of worldwide federation of Laser societies crystallized into a more tangible form The Inaugural WFSLMS Congress: The convening of the first WFSLMS congress took place in Tokyo in 2005, under the leadership of Professor Kazuhiko Atsumi. At this meeting, Professor Kaplan proposed that a Medical Laser Foundation should be established and donated the first seed money for its formation. Because of the Japanese legal requirements, a foundation was impossible and so a Non-profit Organization (NPO-WFSLMS) was started, based in Japan, to oversee the work and fund the tasks of promoting Laser surgery and Medicine worldwide, for the good of mankind: the financing, running and holding WFSLMS congresses became one of the tasks of NPO-WFSLMS. Conclusion: Both the WFSLMS and NPO-WFSLMS were therefore on their way to working together for a cohesive approach to try and coordinate the work of all societies dedicated to Laser Medicine and surgery under the WFSLMS umbrella, with NPO-WFSLMS continuously gathering, administering and disbursing the funds to allow the WFSLMS to run its 4-yearly meetings.

Laser blood saving campaign and world federation of societies for Laser Medicine and surgery
2004Co-Authors: Toshio OhshiroAbstract:Blood Saving Campaign is a campaign to lessen the risk of intra- and post-operative blood transfusion by decreasing the amount of blood loss during surgery and at the same time will lessen the risk of transmission of blood born diseases. The blood saved can be used to treat those afflicted with diseases such as hemophilia and aplastic anemia where blood transfusion is imperative for the survival of the patient. At the 7th forum of WFSLMS held in Germany 2003, the steering committee has evolved to an organizing committee of WFSLMS. The aim of WFSLMS is to contribute to the health and welfare of mankind through the merit of minimum tissue damage and high efficacy of hemostasis in Laser Medicine. Therefore we also organized a Laser Blood Saving Campaign (Laser B-SAC) committee within WFSLMS at the same congress. The methods of Laser blood saving are divided into 4 categories. 1. Surgical Laser Treatment (HLLT). 2. Non-surgical Laser Therapy (LLLT). 3. Laser Treatment with Newly Developed Laser Machines. 4. Laser Treatment with Newly Developed Techniques. I will mention on the History of B-SAC, Action Plan of B-SAC and so on.
