What is ideal dosage, power density and also timing for reduced level laser treatment in tendon injuries? A testimonial of in vitro as well as in vivo tests
Product: Controlled in vitro or in vivo trials with reduced level laser therapy (LLLT) Method: Literature search for trials published after 1980 using LLLT on Medline, Embase, Cochrane Library as well as handsearch of physical rehabilitation journals in English and also Scandinavian languages. 3 in vitro tests were performed on stretch-induced as well as swelling in fibroblast societies and also five in vitro trials were performed on collagen production. The results from three in vivo tests revealed comparable boost in collagen production.
