The infrared coagulator was developed 10 years ago in West Germany. It shares some properties with an infrared laser but differs by virtue of its noncoherent, multispectral light source. It has evolved to become a cheap, portable instrument with a wide spectrum of applications in medicine, including dermatology. The treatment of tattoos and vascular lesions with the infrared coagulator is discussed, along with the technical considerations and limitations associated with this instrument.
红外凝固器于10年前在西德研发。它与红外激光有一些共同特性，但因其非相干多光谱光源而有所不同。它已发展成为一种价格低廉、便于携带的仪器，在医学领域有着广泛的应用，包括皮肤科。本文讨论了使用红外凝固器治疗纹身和血管病变的情况，以及与该仪器相关的技术考量和局限性。
