- Abstract
- The purpose of this study was to find optimum treatment conditions for selective photothermolysis by evaluating internal-external heat distributions according to different cooling methods. The 1,064-nm Nd:YAG laser was transmitted into a skin-mimicking phantom with different cooling conditions, and its minimum temperatures and sub-zero times were measured. The cooling methods were classified into a total of eight conditions composed of five cryogen spray cooling conditions and three air cooling conditions. Based on the experimental results, condition 2 was selected as the optimum cooling condition for selective photothermolysis obtained from the cryogen spray cooling method.
