introduction: an attack of acute myocardial infarction (mi) poses the threat of great damage to cardiac tissue. operative therapeutic modalities such as coronary artery bypass grafting (cabg) may enhance myocardial perfusion in high-grade coronary vasculature occlusions. it has been shown previously that low-level laser therapy (lllt) significantly reduces infarct size following induction of my...

low-power lasers are a group of lasers with a power less than 500 mw and unlike high-power lasers they have no effect on tissue temperature; they produce light-dependent chemical reactions in tissues. the purpose of this study was to review the clinical applications of these lasers and their success rate in different studies in orofacial pains. the articles with the key word “low level laser th...

the use of low level laser to reduce pain, inflammation and edema, to promote wound, deeper tissues and nerves healing, and to prevent tissue damage has been known for almost forty years since the invention of lasers. this review will cover some of the proposed cellular mechanisms responsible for the effect of visible light on mammalian cells, including cytochrome c oxidase (with absorption pea...

low level laser therapy (lllt) uses a light source that generates extremely pure light, of a single wavelength1. the effect is not thermal, but rather related to photochemical reactions in the cells. lllt was introduced as an alternative non-invasive treatment for oa about 10 years ago, but its effectiveness is still controversial2. a cochrane review of lllt in osteoarthritis included five tria...

in order to study the effect of ultrasound (us) on bone healing, a complete transverse fracture was made in the right radius of adult male rabbits by a cutter. 52 rabbits were used: group i. control (n= 17): group 2. test (n:=: 15): group 3, intact (n= i) and group 4 (n= 12) who were examined only for evaluation of the cutter effects in detail. 7 animals were operated with a gigli saw. the test...
