ABSTRACT:
A family of laser evolved models providing laser surgical teaching and proficiency practice targetry. A first model element, comprising a rectangular sheet of laser impervious material having arrays of laser vaporizable markings imprinted thereon, provides targetry for exercising controls of a surgical laser governing spot size and power level of a laser beam therefrom, and of an associated micromanipulator in directing the laser beam to specific target elements of the arrays and in traversing the laser beam across and around each such target element. Further model elements, provided as replicas of portions of the human anatomy, each pre-formed with a plurality of indentations which serve as receptacles for appropriate volumes of a suitable laser vaporizable material simulating laser surgically treatable lesions. Said indentations are of appropriate sizes, shapes, and depths, and are distributed to be representative of lesions of a variety of types such as basal cell carcinomas, keratoses, warts, cysts, and the like. Said anatomical model elements are fabricated of fire-hardened clay substantially impervious to laser vaporization, and may thus be repetitively utilized.
