Our study showed that stone location, hardness, and fibre size are the most critical factors influencing the outcome of Ho: YAG laser parameters. The study revealed that CaOMH stones require more time to disintegrate into smaller ones, while PH-dependent stones such as carbonate apatite may require less time to fragment.
