The VersaPulse® PowerSuite™ holmium laser combines excellent cutting, ablation and coagulation properties for precise, virtually bloodless procedures. It is also extremely effective in fragmenting urinary and gall bladder stones of all compositions, making it an ideal multipurpose surgical tool.The VersaPulse® PowerSuite™ holmium laser combines excellent cutting, ablation and coagulation properties for precise, virtually bloodless procedures. It is also extremely effective in fragmenting urinary and gall bladder stones of all compositions, making it an ideal multipurpose surgical tool. Because its laser light is transmitted through flexible fibers, it is especially suited for minimally invasive endoscopic and laparoscopic procedures.

The VersaPulse PowerSuite system comes in a variety of low- to high-power holmium models plus a combination holmium and neodymium:YAG (Nd:YAG) configuration. Lumenis™ is the pioneer in laser and light-based technology. Since introducing the first medical laser in 1970, over 60,000 systems have been used by nearly every medical specialty. Since introducing the first holmium laser in 1991, Lumenis has helped to expand the medical applications of this relatively new multipurpose laser.

Today, holmium technology has been proven in thousands of procedures, securing the holmium laser its place as a well-respected minimally invasive treatment modality and the VersaPulse PowerSuite as the system of choice. VersaPulse PowerSuite lasers are used for ablation, excision, incision, vaporization and immediate hemostasis of soft tissues through endoscopic, laparoscopic and open access for a wide variety of surgical applications and procedures.
