Abstract:
The application of semiconductor laser in medicine has extended rapidly with the development of its series techniques. Semiconductor laser has its own advantages, such as small body, light weight, low price and optional wavelengths. The application of semiconductor laser is limited within two fields, which covers other lasers' application fields. One is the utilization of its optic property for tissue detection and disease diagnosis, and the other is the utilization of its biological effect for disease therapy. The two kinds of application are both specified in this paper.
