Medical laser apparatus
First Claim
1. A medical laser apparatus for irradiating an affected tissue with a laser beam to treat the affected tissue, comprising:
- a laser source unit which emits an infrared beam as a fundamental wave having a spectral bandwidth;
a wavelength demultiplexing optical system which spatially demultiplexes the emitted infrared beam by wavelengths;
a wavelength converting optical system including a wavelength converting element disposed in correspondence with an optical path position of each of the demultiplexed infrared beams and for converting each of the infrared beams to a visible beam as a second harmonic wave;
a wavelength multiplexing optical system which multiplexes the visible beams obtained by the conversion; and
a delivery optical system which guides the multiplexed visible beams to the affected tissue.
