Abstract:
The autodyne signal arising in an Er fibre laser in the course of evaporating biological models of different types is studied and the possibility of recognising the biotissue type using the method of autodyne detection of the backscattered Doppler signal is assessed. In the experiments we modelled the process of surgical intervention using the contact (hole perforation with the Er laser fibre) and noncontact (surface evaporation with the focused radiation) regimes of impact on different biological models. The amplitude – frequency characteristic of the autodyne detection for the Er fibre laser is measured and the initial spectra of the backscattered Doppler signal arising under the action of laser radiation on the samples of biological models are obtained. The experiments have shown that the spectra of the backscattered Doppler signal, arising in the course of the contact and noncontact action of the Er fibre laser on different biological models, demonstrate clear-cut distinctions.
