Apparatus is described for determining the optical quality of an optical element, the optical element having proximal and distal end portions. The apparatus also includes at least one non-polarizing beam splitter; at least one polarizing beam splitter; at least a first detector operatively associated with the at least one non-polarizing beam splitter; at least a second detector operatively associated with the at least one polarizing beam splitter. The apparatus includes a mechanism to transmit at least one beam of coherent light energy through the at least one non-polarizing beam splitter and through the at least one polarizing beam splitter, the beam being directed to the proximal and distal end portions of the optical element; the beam of coherent light energy that is reflected from the proximal end portion of the optical element is directed back through the at least one polarizing and the at least one non-polarizing beam splitters to the first detector; the beam that is reflected from the distal end portion of the optical element is directed back through the at least one polarized beam splitter to the second detector; and, the energy level detected by the first and the second detectors provides a measure of optical quality of the optical element.

Optical integrity detection system

An improved procedure for performing liposuction is obtained by utilizing a needle that includes a laser source conductor with one end of the needle being configured for insertion into a target adipose skin volume and the other end being coupled to a laser source. The needle may include one or more channels for extracting the treated adipose area. A vacuum source can be used in the extraction of the treated adipose. Further, the first end of the needle may include a cap or end-piece that reduces the build up of carbon deposits. A temperature sensor may be used as input to adjust the laser power and prevent over exposure.

Device, apparatus, and method of adipose tissue treatment

A system and method to control non-coherent pulsed light, the system including a lamp to produce non-coherent light energy in a pulsed mode, a current supply to provide energy to the system, and a switching module to control the spectral distribution and/or light intensity in the non-coherent pulsed light energy during a pulse of non-coherent light. The system may include a controller unit to control pulse parameters for a selected treatment, based on illumination data received from the light sensor. The system may include one or more changeable filters to modulate the pulses supplied to the lamp during a pulse.
