Abstract
In order to study to what extent diode laser irradiation effects peripheral nerve injury, the experimental research was made on rabbits. Experimental results show that low-energy semiconductor laser can promote axonal regeneration and improve nervous function. It is also found that simultaneous exposure of the injured peripheral nerve and corresponding spinal segments to laser irradiation may achieve the most significant results.
