Description

Zhilong Li and colleagues report a 2026 lab study that tunes thulium fiber laser settings for kidney stone work. Lithotripsy uses laser pulses to break urinary stones in dust or fragments. Three parameters were varied: peak power, average power and pulse energy. A decoupling platform and fake BegoStone models let each factor shift alone. Fragmentation, dusting, heat harm and stone kick back, called retropulsion, were all scored.

High peak power with low average power and pulse energy boosted fragmentation and dusting. It also kept heat harm at the low end. Low peak power with high average power and pulse energy cut stone kick back, with no loss in fragmentation or dusting. The multilevel plan can tailor settings to stone site in the urinary tract. Personal settings may raise yield and cut risk in stone surgery.
