Doctors at the BSMP in Ulan-Ude have received a new device that allows them to erase kidney stones into dust. This became possible thanks to a new laser device of domestic production Fiber Lase U3.

Thanks to the new equipment, which has a laser unit of increased power, kidney stone removal operations can be performed without open intervention.

The device can crush stones of any density due to the wavelength of 1.94 microns and super-pulse mode, which reduces the time for stone destruction and at the same time maintains high accuracy of impact. Stones are destroyed to the state of "stone dust" and then leave the body naturally.
