Abstract
We considered the boring soft biotissues with laser-energized fibers for the two-step photodynamic therapy of deep-seated tumors. The proposed method and the corresponding equipment included the dye laser pumped by copper vapor laser have been discussed. Experiments were performed with potato tissues fixing heat penetration depths. It was established that a quality of resulted bore walls (the small coagulation depth and the absence of carbon deposits) is determined by laser powers, boring speeds, and properties of tissues.
