Holmium:YAG laser and pulsed dye laser: A cost comparison

Intracorporeal lithotripters: selecting the optimum machine

“…• SLC vs PDL : SLC was up to 10 times more cost effective than laser lithotripsy [12,14,16]. • HYL vs PDL : If laser lithotripsy is considered expensive then it is interesting to compare these two options; not all lasers are the same, as the HYL is US$ 1000 cheaper per case than PDL [32]. …”
