| pubmed-article:1589838 | pubmed:abstractText | There have been major advances in laser technology and in our understanding of the effects of laser energy on blood vessels. This, in turn, has led to the many clinical applications of lasers in patients with vascular disease. The clinical results of laser endarterectomy, laser angioplasty, laser-assisted balloon angioplasty, laser-assisted vascular anastomoses, and the future of lasers in cardiovascular disease are discussed. | lld:pubmed |
