Singapore – Dornier MedTech (Dornier), a global leader in stone management and maker of Europe’s best-selling holmium laser brand, announced the launch of the new Dornier Medilas H Solvo 35. This innovative 35-watt laser features the patented Advanced Mode for reduced retropulsion, a unique pulse shape for decreasing stone movement during lithotripsy. The advanced laser also offers preset treatment modes, two displays for flexible viewing, and a wireless footswitch to make treatment of all types of stones highly efficient. The product is debuting at the European Association of Urology conference in Copenhagen, Denmark, taking place 16-20 March 2018.

The uniquely engineered Advanced Mode reduces stone movement during lithotripsy, eases targeting of the stone with the laser fiber and helps to reduce patient treatment time—a significant advantage for urologists. Professor Dr. Med. Thomas Knoll, Chief of the Department of Urology at Klinik-Verbund Südwest in Germany, and renowned member of international urolithiasis committees of experts, stated, “Although the Solvo is already very efficient with Standard Mode, the unique pulse shape of the Advanced Mode helps ensure that mobile stones are decisively more stable during laser lithotripsy.”

In addition to the patented Advanced Mode, dusting, fragmenting and three other treatment modes are preset with clinically proven parameters for efficient treatment mode selection at just one touch of a button. The offering of a dedicated pulse shape that reduces retropulsion and the variety of preset laser lithotripsy treatment modes is an important advantage in the holmium laser market—and one which has made the predecessor Solvo model Europe’s most popular holmium laser brand.
