Title: Hood method and device for material dissection
Inventor: CHANG KENNETH
IPC: A61B17/00
Filed: 2009-12-04
Granted: 2013-02-28
Abstract: An apparatus or device and a method of using such device for lifting, separating, or removing a first material (e.g., targeted tissue) from a second material (e.g., tissue of a body lumen in a patient) is presented. The method generally comprises placing the distal end of the device to a location that is proximate to the first material; deploying a first anchor member (e.g., T-anchor) fastened to a suture strand into the first material; deploying a second anchor member (e.g., loop anchor) spaced away from the first anchor member, whereas the suture strand is slidably received by the second anchor member; applying tension to the suture strand; cutting the first material at a predetermined depth around the periphery of the first material; and separating or removing the first material along with the first anchor member. The tension applied to the suture strand maintains the first material in a raised position and/or allows the operator to manipulate the first material relative to the second material.

Abstract: The invention relates to a mirror arrangement for guiding a laser beam in a laser system having at least one first end mirror (1) and one second end mirror (2), wherein said end mirrors (1, 2) define a resonator having an optical resonator axis (OA), wherein the laser beam is guided into the resonator as an input laser beam (ES) and is guided out of the resonator again after multiple reflection at the first and second end mirrors (1, 2) as an output laser beam (AS). The sequence of reflections at the first and the second end mirror (1, 2) thereby determines a direction of rotation between the first and second end mirror, defined as an axis of rotation relative to the resonator axis, whereby a first beam path is defined and the laser beam circulates in a direction of rotation between the first and second end mirrors in the resonator defined as an axis of rotation relative to the resonator axis (OA). The resonator is designed such that the direction of rotation is reversed at a reversing point and the laser beam in the resonator passes through at least partially in a direction of rotation opposite to the first beam path, whereby a second beam path is defined.
