Abstract
Despite the emerging market in energy-based devices to treat Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM) in menopausal women, the exact effect of the laser on vaginal tissue remains poorly understood. We developed a point-of-care intravaginal endoscope that can obtain simultaneous information on structural and vascular information during the vaginal laser procedure. We evaluated the capability of assessing the treatment outcome by investigating patients receiving the CO2 fractional laser treatment. Our study supports the hypothesis that the treatment effect highly depends on the initial tissue parameters such as epithelium thickness and vascular density.
