Executive Summary
PLC Systems (US) has received the CE mark for The Heart Laser its patented high-powered CO(2) surgical laser. So far, PLC has shipped 14 Heart Lasers to Europe. The first two thorascopic TMR procedures using the Heart Laser in Switzerland have just been completed. Use of the thorascope - an endoscope-like device which allows the surgeon to examine the chest cavity organs - means the TMR procedure can be carried out even less invasively, says PLC. TMR using the Heart Laser does not require a heart-lung machine.
