Abstract
Using this ex vivo model, the results indicate that in vitro treatment with a 1920 nm EVL, at or above an LEED of 60 J/cm and 4 W power, causes significant vein wall cell death reaching deep into the media by a combination of direct thermal damage and apoptosis. A wavelength of 1920 nm appears to be effective for the endovenous ablation of truncal veins.
