Protoplaser

From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference

A protoplaser is a medical device used in wound treatment. Anabolic protoplasers are a specialized version of a protoplaser.

Personnel file information about Lois Eckridge, an emergency medical assistant, listed her certification to use a protoplaser. (TNG: "Eye of the Beholder")

In a delusion created by Commander William T. Riker's mind while he was held captive on Tilonus IV, Doctor Beverly Crusher ordered for an anabolic protoplaser to be used in the treatment of a crewmember who had been injured by an exploding plasma torch. (TNG: "Frame of Mind")

[edit] Background

  • Information about Eckridge that mentioned the protoplaser was visible in an okudagram graphic, not from dialog or from an explicitly seen prop.
