Sapphire tips for Nd:YAG lasers fibers have been introduced recently. The increased energy density improves the cutting effect while, reportedly, preserving the hemostatic properties of Nd:YAG laser energy. The capacity of sapphire tip laser fibers to facilitate partial nephrectomy was tested in mongrel dogs. No advantage for this technique was demonstrated compared to standard methods of partial nephrectomy.
钇铝石榴石激光光纤的蓝宝石尖端。能量密度的增加改善了切割效果，同时据报道，保留了钕：钇铝石榴石激光能量的止血特性。在杂种犬中测试了蓝宝石尖端激光光纤促进部分肾切除术的能力。与部分肾切除术的标准方法相比，未证明该技术具有优势。
