Abstract
The advent of high power (> 10 Watts) 800 to 980 nm diode lasers, and medium power (1 to 10 Watts) 670 to 690 nm, and 1.8 to 2.1 micrometers diode lasers, has allowed diode lasers to enter the medical market. An overview of current, pending, and potential medical applications utilizing these lasers is presented.
