Abstract
Lasers have extensive use in medicine. In general most doctors are aware of the use of lasers as a surgical tool. These lasers are usually 50W or more in power. Few doctors know of the usefulness of lower power lasers in general practice, or generally regard them as tools used by physiotherapists. These low powered lasers may be as low powered as 2mw or up to 30mw. These lasers and other low powered sources of energy will be transforming the practise of medicine over the next few years.
