Interventions

Thulium Fibre Laserdevice

The TFL is a relatively new laser in the field of urology. First introduced on the market in 2017, it offers theoretically superior stone dusting qualities and smaller fiber sizes to allow for better irrigation.

Holmium:Yttrium-Aluminum-Garnetdevice

The Ho:YAG is currently the most commonly used laser in the field of urology and for the better part of the last 3 decades has been considered the gold standard for laser lithotripsy.
