Published 1994Staff ViewISSN: 1089-7623Source: AIP Digital ArchiveTopics: PhysicsElectrical Engineering, Measurement and Control TechnologyNotes: A high-voltage pulse output modulator using a step-up transformer with two stages of magnetic pulse compression circuits has been developed as a spiker for the purpose of obtaining the breakdown of the gas mixture when using the spiker-sustainer excitation technique for pumping XeCl discharge lasers. When the transformer input is fed by a current pulse with a peak value and a full width of 1.16 kA and 1.6 μs, respectively, formed by a discharge of an initially charged 19-kV, 57-nF capacitance in series in the transformer primary loop, the 2.7-nF output capacitor bank (Cp) of the spiker can be charged up to 67 kV with a (10%–90%) rise time of 59 ns. The modulator has been tested at a repetition rate of up to 600 Hz in burst mode using a resistor in parallel with Cp as the load.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

A Nd: YAG laser was coupled to a quartz fibreoptic guide (600 μm) with a flat tip. The fibre and a thermocouple were placed in the lumen of two Chiba needles (18G) and these were inserted into the liver 10 mm apart under ultrasound guidance. The laser was fired for 5 min at 1, 3 and 5 W power, respectively, in three groups of rabbits. There were no acute complications and all the rabbits except one survived until the established time of sacrifice. The procedure induced a cavity surrounded by a zone (about 10 mm) of coagulative necrosis. After 2 weeks a strong peripheral inflammatory response was evident and after 4 weeks a capsule of connective tissue enclosed the lesions. Our study seems to offer a safe and rapid technique producing a “guaranteed kill radius” for the treatment of small hepatic neoplasms.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL:
