Rephrasing of lead sentence in the section about lasers

[edit]

Currently, the lead sentence for this section is, "Holmium laser with wavelength of 2100nm (infrared band) is used to break urinary stones which is ideal for breaking stones (even hardest)." This is very awkward and it's not immediately clear what it means. I'm no expert on the subject, but I'd guess that "...because it's ideal..." would make the meaning much more clear. I'd appreciate it if somebody who knows the subject would take a look at this and edit it for clarity.JDZeff (talk) 05:41, 24 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
