Abstract
To describe the application of low-intensity laser light for treatment of a chronic, full-thickness skin wound in a dog. Case report. An 8-year old, castrated Whippet. The wound was irradiated on the awake patient with 630 nM wavelength, nonthermal red light once daily for 4 consecutive days. Changes in wound surface area were measured by computer analysis of digital images of the wound. The wound diminished in size during the course of laser treatments and was completely healed by day 21. No post-treatment complications occurred. Low-intensity laser light may be useful for treatment of chronic skin wounds in dogs.
