Damage of the normal tissue is a serious concenrn in cancer treatment. Hyperthermia by laserhas been considered as a safe cancer treatments methods with lower harmful effects on normaltissues. Using nanoparticles in cancer treatment has improved laser therapy, which is based ona selective cell targeting method to localize cell damages. Metallic nanoparticles such as gold,silver, and copper have...

Femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery has grown in popularity among ophthalmologists as a novel technique with the potential to reduce phacoemulsification energy requirements.1,2 However, early adoption of femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery by experienced cataract surgeons has been associated with a significant learning curve.3 Roberts et al. reported higher complication rates in...

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a benign epithelial tumor that exhibits a high frequency of recurrence. This study assesses the vocal function after laser treatment for RRP, particularly in relation to the frequency of surgery. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective study. METHODS Thirty RRP patients who underwent laser surgery that controlled the tumor were included...

PURPOSE To assess the effect of ocular media opacity on retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness measurements by optical coherence tomography (OCT). METHODS In this prospective, non-randomized clinical study, ocular examinations and OCT measurements were performed on 77 cataract patients, 80 laser refractive surgery patients and 90 patients whose signal strength on OCT was different on two ...
