## Abstract ## Background and Objectives Since the mechanisms underlying the effects of lowβpower laser irradiation on the nervous system remain unclear, we examined whether such irradiation can influence ionic channels of the nerve membrane using the law of polar excitation in isolated frog sciat

β¦ Synopsis
For our study of the effect of low energy laser irradiation (LELI) on living tissue we used HeNe laser on rats. The exponential absorption was reaffirmed in the living tissues overlying the sciatic nerve. An optimal range of energy between 3.5 and 7 J--associated with energy concentration of 4-10 J/cm2 delivered transcutaneously--was found to cause a significant increase in action potential in the sciatic nerve. The effect lasted for more than 8 months after the irradiation session.

Background and Objective: Our study aimed to determine how lasing affected intradental nerve responses to dentine stimulation. Study Design/Materials and Methods: Intradental nerve activity was recorded from canine teeth of anaesthetised ferrets. Dentine exposed at the tip of the tooth was stimulate
## Abstract In order to further improve and explore the role of lasers for nerve reconstruction, this study was designed to investigate regeneration of sharply transected peripheral nerves repaired with a CO~2~ milliwatt laser in combination with three different suture materials and a bovine albumi
## Abstract ## Background and Objective The purpose of the present study was to examine the recovery of the crushed sciatic nerve of rats after lowβpower laser irradiation applied to the corresponding segments of the spinal cord. ## Study Design/Materials and Methods After a crush injury to the
## Background and Objectives : Traumatic transection of a peripheral nerve is inherently associated with the development of neuroma at the end of the proximal stump, often leading to therapyresistant pain. This study was designed to evaluate whether the neodymium:yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) la
The effect of low-intensity millimeter wave electromagnetic radiation (MWR) on regeneration of the rat sciatic nerve after transection and microsurgical reapproximation was examined. Rats were exposed to 54 GHz MWR at a power density of 4 mW/cm\*. It was found that MWR treatment of the femoral skin
