In the United States, federal law restricts this device to sale by or
on the order of a physician or any practitioner licensed by state law
to use or order the use of this device. No such restrictions apply to
international sales. Those who use the system should be properly
trained and authorized by the practitioner or institution.
Although the determination of appropriate training criteria is the
responsibility of the practitioner or institution, it is recommended
that minimal training include education on laser physics, laser
safety, laser interaction with tissue, guidelines for use in specific
applications, and hands-on training with appropriate models.
