Abstract
Laser medicine is one of the earliest developed and most prominent branch of applications of laser technology. Since the first appearance of the ruby laser in 1960 it took only one year for the ruby laser retina coagulation machine to be found in the market. Accompanying the development of various species of new lasers, together with the development of fiber techniques and applications of electronics, tremendous progress has taken place on laser applications to biological and medical basic research as well as to laser medical treatment and diagnostics. Indeed, laser medicine is a multi-disciplined new technology and profession, and much more important developments are expected.
