The objective of this study is to compare the Magneto 150 holmium laser to the current MOSES 2.0 technology to see if there is a benefit in decreased hemostasis time intraoperatively.
The Magneto 150 is a high-powered 150W holmium laser that offers similar pulse-modulation benefits of MOSES 2.0, which facilitates effective dissection and enucleation of the tissue plane while also offering a new first-of-its kind proprietary Magneto setting which allows for very low peak power of 500W and longer pulse duration which allows for better hemostasis.
