Laser-Guided Treatment for Cervical Cancer

Cervical cancer is defined as cancer that occurs anywhere on the cervix. The cervix is the aperture between the vaginal and uterine cavities (uterus). It is a component of the reproductive system and is also known as the womb’s neck.

Cervical cancer can affect all women. It is more common in women over the age of 30. Cervical cancer is caused by a longterm infection with particular forms of human papillomavirus (HPV). HPV is a common virus that is spread from person to person through intercourse.

The Following are cervical cancer’s most common symptoms:

·         vaginal bleeding between periods.

·         menstrual bleeding that is longer or heavier than usual.

·         pain during intercourse.

·         bleeding after intercourse.

·         pelvic pain.

·         a change in your vaginal discharge such as more discharge or it may have a strong or unusual color or smell.

·         vaginal bleeding after menopause.

Treatment depends on the disease stage. For early and non-bulky diseases (less than 4cm), the most common treatment is surgery. Recently, non-surgical operations powered by laser treatment are seizing the place of traditional surgeries being bloodless, safer and faster with remarkable final results.

More specifically, laser surgery, sometimes called laser ablation, is a treatment that may be used to address cervical cancer. Most often performed for women with early stages of cervical cancer, laser surgery involves using a focused laser beam to create heat and burn the cancerous cells.

To perfectly accomplish this sensitive excision task, a proper and highly professional laser machine is needed.

In this vein, the Portable Surgery 810nm Diode Laser System FDA LASER-1.2A is one of the most recommended equipment among surgeons due to its excellent efficacy in treating such forms of cancer.

The blue laser light from this gadget interacts better with the tissue components haemoglobin or melanin. Even at reduced power, the machine performs better and softer cutting at 980 nm (the high-level laser light required).

As such, its improved cutting performance makes it ideally suited to all surgical applications, particularly for cervical cancer.

What also makes the LASER-1.2A highly recommended by surgeons is that it displays an accurate alignment and exact sighting during the treatment. All thanks to its green aiming beam.

To further improve the treatment, the device is supported with a fibre guide laser. So, it is compatible with various endoscopic uses. Also, these special fibres are sterilisable which, in turn, prevents any possible cross-infection while guaranteeing a clean and bloodless operative area.

With a 980 nm wavelength and 15W as maximum power, the device is thought to perfectly address cervical cancer issues.

That is highly attributed to the fact that The LASER-1.2 A uses infrared wavelengths and ultra-blue light to ensure high-level performance.

That is also estimated to reduce thermal damage and its peculiar interaction with haemoglobin.

Due to all these features, the LASER-1.2 A guarantees increased cutting effectiveness, much higher than the one obtained with infrared lasers.

Since their invention, laser use and applications have expanded rapidly as it proved to be a successful addition to cancer surgery.

In this article, we highlight the advantages of laser treatment, specifically the efficiency of LASER-1.2 A as a surgical laser device capable of effectively treating the ever-increasing problem of cervical cancer in women.
