Is a cluster probe with different types of laser diodes (different wavelengths) optimal?
No. Similar to the answer above, the fewer the wavelengths that are mixed in, the better the results. Back to top Is a laser with built-in “recipes” better than an instrument giving fix doses? It has become popular to sell instruments with built-in treatment “recipes”, or treatment programs. While this may sound good (“The instrument knows!”), it is actually unfortunate. Let’s look at an example: You choose “arthritis” from the menu of an instrument with built-in treatment programs. The instrument may give the following program: 30 Hz for one minute, 156 Hz for 2 minutes, and 5000 Hz for 45 seconds. Then the owner of the instrument thinks that this is the best treatment for arthritis. But this is wrong! Why? First, the pulse frequency is one of the least important parameters. The result will probably be just as good if another indication had been chosen from said table, e.g. acne treatment. Pulse frequency is on the fifth or sixth place of parameter importance. Second, in the example a
