The lateral emission aims directly at the prostate tissue while the sphincter is preserved. By means of the thumb holder the probe can easily be rotated about its axis.

The Side Fire Fiber Probe can be used at a wavelength of 532 nm, for example. Its fused fiber tip maximizes laser transmission and durability for optimum treatment results.
