Phototherapy 101: A Multi Radiance Medical Exclusive.

The purpose of this text is to provide a reference guide for phototherapy technology. After discussing in detail the technical specifications, clinicians will be able to effectively evaluate and compare light therapy devices based on power, classification, wavelength, frequency, and diode construction.

Audience: This book is designed for practitioners of physical medicine and rehabilitation including but not limited to certified athletic trainers, physical and occupational therapist, chiropractors and students of those professions.

Features: This book features a brief history of light as a physical agent and describes the basic concepts of the light/tissue interaction. The various types of phototherapy devices -- low level lasers, infrared emitting diodes and light emitting diodes -- are defined clearly in terms of technical design and therapeutic uses. Illustrations and graphics are used to reinforce key concepts and are placed throughout the text. Each chapter contains educational objectives as well as a comprehensive summary at the end of each chapter. The reference section contains an extensive glossary, specific treatment protocols, and two Clinician FAQ Guides designed exclusively for the TerraQuant Laser.

The New Laser Therapy Handbook.

Jan Tunér is a dentist in private practise, working with lasers since 1986. He is a board member of the World Association for Laser Therapy.

Lars Hode is a physicist, specialised in medical laser applications and working with laser therapy since 1985. He is the president and founder of the Swedish Laser-Medical Society.

"The Laser Therapy Handbook" was the best selling book in this field but was sold out in the winter of 2010. Now Prima Books is offering an updated version with some 700 new references and 250 new pages - and in colour. The soft cover approach is maintained to keep the price down.
The scientific documentation about the effects of Laser Phototherapy is rapidly increasing, with some 250 new scientific papers published annually on PubMed. There was therefore a need for an updated version of this popular book.

Two new hands-on laser therapy handbooks.

• A Podiatrist's Guide to Low Level Laser Therapy. (54 pages)
• Acupuncturists Guide to Laser Therapy and Musculo-Skeletal Injuries. (51 pages)

The available literature is sometimes a bit too theoretical for the average laser therapist. Therefore we welcome these two clinical handbooks, written by Kerry and Sean Tume.

These handbooks are very clinically and didactically oriented and give straightforward advice on how to treat various conditions, but also contain a general presentation of the therapeutical principles.
