The paper deals with the medical application of diode-lasers. A short review of medical therapies is presented, taking into account the wavelength applied, continuous wave (cw) or pulsed regimes, and their therapeutic effects. Special attention was paid to the laryngological application of a pulsed diode laser with wavelength 810 nm, and dermatologic applications of a 975 nm laser working at cw and pulsed mode. The efficacy of the laser procedures and a comparison of the pulsed and cw regimes is presented and discussed.

AbstractThe objective of this study was to investigate the effect of power on low-level lasers used in photodynamic therapy (PDT) to treat chronic plaque psoriasis in a group of Sudanese patients.Twenty-four patients with chronic plaque psoriasis were randomly selected to enter this study from a total of 100 patients who attended the Khartoum Dermatology Teaching Hospital between 2010 and 2011. The lasers used for PDT were three continuous wave diode lasers in the red portion of the electromagnetic spectrum (671–675 nm) with output powers of 16, 50 and 100 mW to activate the chemical photosensitizer (LevulanThis study showed that 62% of the patients treated with 100 mW achieved complete clearance compared with 25% for those treated with 50 mW and 0% for those treated with 16 mW.The results showed that increasing the power of low-level laser in PDT increased the clearance of plaque psoriasis. PDT can be used as an alternative method for treatment of psoriasis.
