Development and evaluation of a scoring system for assessing incisions in laser surgery
The idea of laser surgery is nearly as old as the laser itself. From the first trials to modern laser surgery systems, it was and is the aim to selectively cut the tissue in the focus spot without causing harm to surrounding structures. This is only possible when the correct parameters for the surgi...

description | The idea of laser surgery is nearly as old as the laser itself. From the first trials to modern laser surgery systems, it was and is the aim to selectively cut the tissue in the focus spot without causing harm to surrounding structures. This is only possible when the correct parameters for the surgical laser are chosen. Usually, this is done by parameter studies. However, the concrete evaluation scheme often differs between groups and more precise approaches require staining and microscopic evaluation. To overcome these issues, a macroscopic scoring system is presented and evaluated. It can be shown that the scoring system works well and, thus, a laser cut can be evaluated within a few seconds. At the same time, the whole cutting front is taken into account. The presented scoring system is evaluated by the intra class correlation (ICC). The final agreement between different raters is more than 0.7. Therefore, the scoring system can be used to optimize and evaluate the cutting process and it should be suitable for comparing the results between different groups. Definitely, it can be applied for scoring within a group to enable e.g., a profound statistical analysis for a parameter study. |
