Abstract

Low-level laser effects on blood and hematopoietic system were investigated in 69 patients. We have not marked any authentic modification in fibrinogen, prothrombin index, amount of thrombocytes and time of blood clotting. The transcutaneous effect on kidneys by a continuous infrared laser radiation in therapeutic doses does not render any direct influence on blood coagulation. However laser therapy in active nephrotuberculosis has provoked erythrocyturia. By data of RIR the total improvement of kidney ftinctions was in 84,2%; in half of them an increase of blood supply was noted. The confirmation of neoangiogenesis was also obtained by pathomorphological investigation of surgical kidney specimens.
