[Effect of monochromatic red helium-neon laser on the morphology of zymosan arthritis in rats].
Histological and electron microscopy findings suggesting the effect of monochromatic coherent polarized red light on zymosan arthritis in rats are presented. The data obtained have confirmed that treatment of inflamed joints with laser rays exerts an evident therapeutic effect which is determined by activated function of macrophages and fibroblasts of the synovial membrane, resulting in a more rapid change of inflammation phases. Analysis of the cases where the rats were treated with ordinary red light has revealed no essential differences in the joints of the control and irradiated groups.
