METODO Y APARATO TERAPEUTICO PARA ENFERMEDADES SISTEMICAS

Método para el tratamiento de membranas cancerosas y otras enfermedades sistemicas en humanos y animales, que comprende los siguientes pasos: a) evaluación del paciente y el estado de progreso de la enfermedad, haciendo registros para comparaciones subsecuentes; y b) aplicación de un rayo láser en el usuario, substancialmente perpendicular en la piel siguiendo el circuito biologico vicc mas cercano que pasa por el área de la membrana objetivo y siendo dicho rayo láser pulsado a una frecuencia que varia de 0.5 megahertz a 7.5 megahertz.

The output of an oscillator (20) is connected to the input of a frequency selector (30) to selectively adjust the pulse frequency. The pulse train (40) is selected to be between 0.5 MHz and 7.5 MHz with a relatively low duty cycle to avoid thermic energy from making the process an uncomfortable one. The pulse signal, after being amplified, is fed to a transistor (50) that drives a laser diode (60) thereby modulating the output beam. An ultraviolet filter (70) is used to block any unwanted harmonic byproduct. The laser beam is applied substantially perpendicularly to the surface of the patient's skin and in the area in close proximity to the VICC biological circuit that would more efficiently carry the laser energy to the target tissue. The procedure is repeated periodically and its process monitored through conventional magnetic resonance images techniques or other accepted methods.
