The CAO Group Announces the Pilot Diode Laser
The World`s Number One Laser Company Debuts Precision Laser Designed for Veterinarians SALT LAKE CITY--(Business Wire)-- The CAO Group, Inc., the world`s top diode laser company, today unveiled the Pilot Diode Laser, an innovative surgical and therapeutic instrument that represents a breakthrough for veterinary surgical and therapeutic treatments. Available immediately, the 9W Pilot Diode Laser gives veterinarians a versatile tool that provides benefits for patients, owners and clinics. The Pilot`s dual modes and variable settings allow finite control over the amount of energy applied, making it ideal for the veterinarians` diverse range of patients and daily surgical and therapeutic procedures. An affordable addition to every veterinary practice, the Pilot places the newest in technological innovation in the hands of veterinarians. The unique Pilot design allows veterinarians to treat more patients with better outcomes, resulting in increased patient/owner satisfaction, better efficiencies and higher profits. "The Pilot laser provides a superior and much less invasive range of therapies, compared to many conventional methods," said Peter G. Slusser, DVM, DACVIM. On its lowest settings, the Pilot is gentle enough to use for bio-stimulation, hemostasis, decontamination, otitis externa and periodontal treatments. At the highest settings, the Pilot is a superior surgical instrument that handles similarly to a scalpel. The Pilot incision is precise and blood-free, exhibiting virtually no thermal damage or inflammatory response commonly associated with scalpels, electrosurgical and CO2 systems. As a consequence, the Pilot`s beam also produces incisions which exhibit dramatically reduced healing times with greatly improved tissue integrity. The Pilot is extremely effective for common surgeries, including declawing, neutering/spaying, gingivectomy and other soft-tissue procedures. The flexibility of the fiber delivery method provides for adaptable positioning, making the Pilot uniquely compatible with scope-assisted procedures as well. Additionally, the Pilot Diode Laser is the only veterinary laser with a patented motorized fiber management cassette. This cassette allows easy extension and retraction of the nearly 22 feet of flexible laser beam-delivery fiber provided with the Pilot unit. This allows a practitioner to cut the used fiber tip following a procedure, and then move to the next procedure without having to add additional fiber. "The Pilot is the result of working directly with veterinarians to find ways that our technology could serve their unique needs," said Dr. Densen Cao, Ph.D., President and CEO of the CAO Group. "Surgical procedures and every-day treatments they perform were two areas of concern that we`ve helped them address with the Pilot laser." With its comfortable scalpel-like hand piece design and intuitive controls, learning to operate the Pilot requires minimal time. Easy to use, portable and lightweight, the Pilot is perfect for every veterinary practice. For more information, please visit: http://www.Pilotlaser.com. About CAO Group The CAO Group, Inc.
