2011 FEB 9 - (VerticalNews.com) -- "This paper reports a rigid endoscope thatrnprovides an endoscopic view and transmits a high-power infrared laser beam coaxially tornarbitrary points in the view to photocoagulate body tissue, mainly for treatment of twin-to-twinrntransfusion syndrome. The endoscope system consists of a hot mirror for coaxial transmission ofrnvisible light and a neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet laser beam, and an opticalrngalvano scanner for steering the laser beam from the endoscope tip," scientists in Tokyo, Japanrnreport.
