The Pulvis 60+ is a thulium fiber laser (TFL) which can be used both for lithotripsy and for precise soft tissue surgery. Over the last few years, TFL technology has emerged as a new alternative to Holmium:YAG lasers. As well as being particularly suitable for the treatment of stones, the unique benefits of TFL technology also prove their worth in the case of anatomical endoscopic enucleation of the prostate (AEEP) and transurethral (laser) resection of bladder tumors (TUR-B).
One laser - multiple indications
Laser lithotripsy
The Pulvis 60+ features an extensive pulse setting range as well as a very uniform pulse profile with adjustable peak power and pulse lengths. These technical properties ensure that the laser is emitted in a uniform and focused manner with very low stone retropulsion. With its extensive, flexible setting range, the Pulvis 60+ is also capable of carrying out stone dusting, popcorning, and fragmentation.

(Laser-) TUR-B / PDD
The current treatment for non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) is conventional transurethral resection of bladder tumors (TUR-B). In recent years, however, transurethral en bloc resection of bladder tumors (ERBT) has gained in popularity.
Using TFL technology has the advantage of excellent vaporization and efficient tissue hemostasis. Due to the technical properties of the laser, it is emitted to the tissue in a highly precise and controlled manner.
