Because vascular thrombosis often accompanies arteriosclerotic disease in occluding blood vessels, the dissolution properties of laser irradiation were investigated and the energies needed to penetrate different lengths of thrombus were quantitated. Spectrophotometric studies show that the blood clot due to the presence of hemoglobin is well absorbed by argon laser energies, which emit blue-green wavelengths between 454 and 514 nm. Thus, laser energies transmitted directly from an argon-ion source produced vaporization and penetration of human thrombus in a linear dose-response fashion; the longer the thrombus, the greater the power intensity or time exposure necessary to penetrate the clot.
