Enabling advances in next-generation aesthetic laser systems
April 21, 2025
By Dermot Flynn
The medical laser market includes laser technologies for surgeries, ophthalmology, and aesthetic treatments. This category covers cosmetic treatments, including scar and wrinkle removal, mole removal, hair removal, tattoo removal, and pigmented skin treatment. The adoption of these non-invasive procedures is increasing. Drivers include lifestyles changes, increased incidence of skin damage and general reduction in procedural costs. With an increasing aging population and a rise in medical tourism, there a greater awareness than ever of aesthetic procedures.

Powering X-ray Detectors - the Role of High and Low Voltage Power Supplies
March 17, 2025
In any imaging system, the noise and ripple on the output of the high voltage supply are critical as they compromise the image quality. Any ripple present at the point of detection will degrade signal integrity and then become amplified before being analyzed and ultimately displayed. To achieve the best possible image quality, defining and managing this power source parameter is crucial to successfully implementing the system.
