[Possibilities of using biophysical methods of investigation (superweak radiation of tissues) in the ORL area].
Modern biophysical methods allow an insight into the cell metabolism in healthy and in pathological states. With the help of special instruments for measurements of superweak, spontaneous metabolic radiation, we have measured the bioluminiscence of various tissue samples from the ORL region. The energy for superweak radiation is provided by the process of non-fermentative oxidation of tissue lipids, the intensity of superweak radiation is directly related to the intensity of oxidation. Superweak radiation is inherent to all the tissues of the organism but it does not show a direct relationship to the intensity of cell division. The wave lengths of superweak radiation are 360-800 nm on the visible range of the electromagnetic spectrum. We found that the intensity of radiation differs with the various types of pathological changes in tissues. On the basis of the results of our studies, we tried to determine the partical utilization of measurements of superweak radiation of tissue samples from the ORL region. The measurements will be useful to make the indication for tonsillectomy more precise and to determine the biological activity of malignomas.
