    Abstract: Techniques for calibrating an optical sensor system of a composition identification system are provided. In an example, a method can include receiving light at an optical sensor of the optical sensor system from a reference target, determining a first spectral response of the light across a range of wavelengths, determining whether a first spectral intensity corresponding to a first wavelength of the spectral response violates a first threshold, adjust an exposure duration or gain of the optical sensor for the first wavelength to correct the violation, and repeat for multiple wavelengths in the range. Once calibrated, the optical system can more efficiently identify composition of targets, such as anatomical targets encountered during medical procedures such as during endoscopy, laparoscopy, or ureteroscopy procedures, especially when such targets are illuminated with a wide spectrum illumination source.

    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for automatic control of laser treatment of target structure in a body of a subject based on acoustic feedback in response to delivery of laser energy to the target are disclosed. An exemplary laser energy delivery system comprises a laser system to direct laser energy at a body target, and a controller circuit to receive an acoustic signal in response to delivery of laser energy to the target, and to measure acoustic properties from the acoustic signal. The control circuit may generate control signals for controlling the laser system to adjust laser energy output, or for controlling an actuator to adjust a position of a laser fiber distal end relative to the target to achieve a desired therapeutic effect.
