1. Discussions about how to motivate the medical community to embrace new technologies often focus on form and function-user-friendliness, compactness, ergonomics, speed, cost, and so on. For biomedical optics, these discussions further require demonstrating that a laser-based device can do something more-conventional approaches cannot, or at least do it better (such as laser refractive surgery, skin rejuvenation, hair removal, and optical coherence tomography). But with the advent of collaborative (Read Full Article)
