Iridex公司的固态激光系统同时满足眼科和耳鼻喉科的需要

 
  
 
一种新型绿色激光被设计用于在手术室由耳科医生使用来治疗耳硬化症，以及眼科医生用于视网膜激光凝固治疗，这就使得医院跨学科使用一套标准激光平台。

在2005年9月洛山矶召开的美国耳鼻喉科医师学会上，Iridex(Mountain View, CA, USA)公司介绍了这套系统。Iridex是全球范围内皮肤科和眼科市场半导体激光系统的领先供应商，销售的国家超过了100多个国家。新型激光系统扩大了该公司OcuLight产品生产线，使得该公司成功打入耳、鼻、和喉科市场。

“OcuLight激光将我们公司在手术室中眼科固态激光技术方面的经验变成了财富， 使我们能够同时满足眼科和耳鼻喉科的需要，”Iridex总裁兼首席执行官Barry G. Caldwell说，“我们的技术将满足手术室为这两个专业提供一套标准激光平台。”

OcuLight OR 激光是Iridex公司制造的OcuLight绿色激光家族的最新成员。OcuLight OR激光专门为手术室环境而设计，具有用户友好的控制界面。这种激光具有高亮显示和大型方便阅读的标签。其能量具有很好的效能，不需要常规激光维护或者专门电子或者铅工艺，而这些都是老式电子管工艺所需要的。

Solid-State Laser System
 
A new green laser is designed for use in the operating room by otologists for otosclerosis and by ophthalmologists for retinal photocoagulation, which will allow hospitals to use one standard laser platform across specialties.

The laser was introduced at the American Academy of Otolaryngologists in Los Angles (CA, USA) in September 2005 by Iridex Corp. (Mountain View, CA, USA). Iridex is a leading worldwide provider of semiconductor-based laser systems for the dermatology and ophthalmology markets, with distribution in more than 100 countries. The new laser expands the company’s OcuLight product line and allows the company to enter the ear, nose, and throat (ENT) market.

“The OcuLight laser capitalizes on our experience with ophthalmic solid-state laser technology and our presence in the operating room, allowing us to serve both ophthalmic and ENT needs,” said Barry G. Caldwell, president and CEO of Iridex. “Our technology will allow operating rooms to standardize one laser platform across both medical specialties.

The OcuLight OR laser is the newest addition to the OcuLight green product family manufactured by Iridex. The OcuLight OR laser was specifically designed for the operating room environment and contains a user-friendly control interface. The laser features bright displays and large easy-to-read labeling. It is energy-efficient and does not require regular laser maintenance or special electrical or plumbing as was needed by older tube-based technology.
