The Limax® 120W offers surgeons the optimum pulmonary parenchymal surgery experience.
By utilising its innovative diode-pumped Nd:YAG technology, the Limax® 120W blends the beam quality and performance density of a solid state laser with the efficiency and effectiveness of a diode laser. Used in over 150 centres worldwide and supported by over 30 published clinical papers, Limax is recognised and endorsed globally as a leading surgical laser for cardiothoracics.
Why Choose Limax?
- Ideal Wavelength: The Limax® 120W provides surgeons with excellent control over the two primary challenges in pulmonary parenchymal surgery – haemostasis and air loss prevention – through its optimal combination of resection, coagulation, and tissue sealing capabilities. This is made possible by its specific wavelength (1320 nm), which has an ideal coefficient of absorption in water and haemoglobin.
- Parenchyma-Saving Surgery with High Cost-Efficiency: The Limax can perform precise resection of lung metastases thanks to its ideal wavelength. This allows for the preservation of as much healthy tissue as possible, making previously inoperable surgeries possible. Additionally, subsequent procedures are possible, even in cases of recurrence. Apart from these clinical benefits, the system also presents cost savings on consumables such as staple suture devices.
- Maximum Beam Quality: Direct-diode systems experience an increase in beam diameter and a decrease in beam precision as power increases. Conversely, the Limax® system maintains a constant beam quality throughout the entire output power range, up to 120W. This feature enables fast work with maximum performance densities and the use of extremely small fibre diameters
- Intuitive and User-Friendly Operation: The system’s exceptional user-friendliness is evident in the seamless integration of peripheral units such as the smoke evacuator or gas flow controller. This enables the entire system to be controlled through a single display in an intuitive manner.
