- Abstract
The author reflects on a study which evaluates the utilization of a prototype Nd:YAG laser-bearing angioscope for the diagnosis and treatment of large-diameter vessels and cardiac chambers. He presented the research findings which stated that the instrument's ability to inflate the balloon and visualize vascular structures with displaced blood offers new potentials in the field of medicine. He commented that the technique is feasible, though additional studies are still needed.
