Interview with Dr. Wolfgang Neuberger, CEO, biolitec AG

In the future, we will be able to increase the wavelength and thus reach increasing absorption characteristics in tissue.

See a Problem?

Usability was an important topic during the design of the "Leonardo" product line from biolitec AG: Typically, lasers only emit light with one wavelength. This one wavelength is absorbed by the tissue in a specific way and is associated with properties and applications such as cutting, coagulation, evaporation or shrinking.

By combining two wavelengths - and nanometers - in one device, we have the option of changing the effect on the tissue by individually selecting the output of each wavelength. The effects range from excellent deep coagulation, which is essential where bleeding might occur, all the way to a high removal rate and excellent cutting abilities. We can variably adjust the effects by combining the relative outputs of the two wavelengths.

Every conventional device is typically limited in its use in one way or another. CO2 lasers, which have been used in the surgical field for many years, are great for cutting but bad for coagulation.

YAG lasers penetrate deeply into the tissue, coagulate wonderfully but they are not great for cutting. And if they are used for cutting, they cause major tissue damage.

This is due to the corresponding wavelengths and their interaction with the tissue and is something that is nearly impossible to change. We are able to avoid this limitation thanks to the individualized settings for the wavelengths. The first important aspect for us was to ensure that physicians can cover a large variety of applications within their specialty like ENT, for example, with one single device, and to eliminate the need to use two or three different devices at the same time.

The second aspect is to offer Leonardo in different power levels and sizes.

Leonardo Mini, our smallest model, roughly weighs grams and is barely larger than a smartphone. Along with its application in medical offices, it also facilitates mobile use. Physicians are often asked to treat patients in nursing homes, they service several locations and in some cases, they do not want to depend on a power supply. Leonardo Mini makes this possible because we also integrated batteries that ensure the required output over an extended period of time. Quite often, that is a big problem. Frequently the equipment is the size of a refrigerator and needs a water connection for cooling and sometimes a three-phase bridge circuit, making it difficult to integrate it into smaller medical offices, exam rooms or even operating rooms.

That is why compact, mobile devices are far better suited for use in clinical applications.

I think the most important aspect for them is for lasers to be easy and convenient to use. This is why it is increasingly important that they can quickly get to the desired setting and preferred result without the need to be particularly tech-savvy or attend elaborate training courses.
