Abstract
DURING an investigation with lasers we carried out impacts of the calvarium and rib fragments1 and, later, laser drillings of sections of polished bone and femurs of the dog were performed (personal communication from R. O. Becker). Q switched ruby laser transmission through bone slices has also been studied3.
