Laser-assisted end-to-end BioWeld anastomosis in an ovine model.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:While controlled thermal changes in subcutaneous tissue have been used to trigger apoptosis of fat cells and have been proven clinically efficacious, another mechanism of electromagnetic stress suggests that fat apoptosis could be achieved by a non-thermal manner as well. This animal model study investigates...
