What is LILT, LPLT, therapeutic laser, soft laser, MID laser….etc.?
LILT; LPLT: In the literature LILT (Low Intensity Laser Therapy) and LPLT (Low Power Laser Therapy) is also frequently used. Therapeutic Laser: Regarding the laser instrument, chose to use the term “therapeutic laser” rather than “low level laser” or “low power laser”, since high level lasers are also used for laser therapy. Soft Laser: The term “soft laser” was originally used to differentiate therapeutic lasers from “hard lasers”, i.e. surgical lasers. MID Laser; Medical Laser: Several different designations then emerged, such as “MID laser” and “medical laser”. Bio-stimulation laser Bio-regulating laser has been proposed with the disadvantage that one can also give inhibiting doses. Low-reactive-level Laser, Low-intensity-level Laser Photo-biostimulation laser and Photo-biomodulation laser are other names. Thus, it is obvious that the question of nomenclature is far from solved. This is because there is a lack of full agreement internationally, and the names proposed thus far have b
