Abstract

Laser surgery of the changing cartilage shape is based on photothermal effect on tissue components, which leads to its plasticization and, consequently, reshaping of this tissue. With the rapid laser heating, an optoacoustic wave is generated in the tissue, by the propagation and amplitude of which one can understand the changes in the mechanical properties of the tissue. In this work, data were obtained on the relative time variation of the mechanical stresses of the cartilage tissue upon heating and its temporal characteristics (relaxation time and system response time). A simultaneous recording of the electrical conductivity response of the cartilaginous tissue and mechanical stresses on a pulsed - periodic laser exposure is presented. As a result of this study, it was found that the mechanical stresses in the tissue are in good agreement with the electrical response of the tissue and a drop in resistance. It has been found that the continuation of tissue impedance falling down after the laser exposure switched off causes relaxation of the internal stresses. These studies are the base for the development of a control system for laser operations on cartilage tissue.
