✦ Synopsis

Mouse heteroploid fibroblasts were grown nine future generations in vitro tissue culture. The cells were exposed to argon laser, COz laser, and x-ray. Results of scoring for malignant transformation foci were tabulated and compared. Lasers did not produce a significant malignant transformation. Clinical laser use is reviewed and histology as well as long-term clinical experience confirms the safety of lasers.

The influence of linearly polarized argon laser irradiation (A = 488 nm and 514.5 nm) on the closure time of standardized open skin wounds was measured in rats. In two separate controlled experiments no acceleration of wound closure by laser irradiation was observed. In the first experiment the woun
