Abstract:
This paper describes a new approach for laser bone treatment according to a preoperative plan. The advantages of using laser systems are the free choice of the cutting geometry and the possibility of bone treatment without any severe thermal damage. On the other hand, the control of bone removal depth is difficult. Due to the lack of haptical feedback, it is only possible to control the bone removal visually. In addition, by selecting wrong laser parameters and incorrect handling,the tissue can...     »
