In vitro ablation comparisons should not yet alter laser selection for urolithiasis; leaves open clinical efficacy validation.
In an in vitro model, thulium fiber laser demonstrated higher ablation rates compared to Holmium:YAG laser, though specific emission modes like Virtual Basket can increase Ho:YAG performance to comparable levels.
Basulto‐Martínez et al. (2023) studied this question.
