TRANSCRANIAL LASER THERAPY for ISCHAEMIC STROKE



Transcranial laser therapy  is developed to counter the clinical symptoms &  signs of  ischaemic stroke.The neurological deficits left by stroke victims could not be overemphasized to bring down the quality of lives of these group of patients.The use of infra red irradiation had been described as safe to bring the relative regeneration of the brain neuron and improve the neurological signs of these unfortunate group of patients.

BASIC LASER COURSE & SEMINAR IN LASER MEDICINE & SURGERY by IKLASI(MAY,2014)



Around 60 doctors joined  Basic Laser Course and more than three times of these doctors attended the seminar of Laser in Medicine and Surgery.It seems likely that most participants were lady-doctors.(view this picture of mine with some of these lady-doctors following my lecture on laser safety and Photodynamic Therapy).
It should be mentioned here that most of the doctors were interested in aesthetic medicine rather than medical laser in broader sense.Pain management by laser is another field of interest of young doctors.Education & training are important steps to develop the knowledge & skills of these next generation of doctors in laser medicine & surgery.
