Abstract

Sequential quantitative Gallium-67 Citrate (Ga-67) scanning was used to evaluate the resolution of inflammation in standardized bruises in rat thighs with and without Helium Neon (He-Ne) laser treatment. The severity of inflammation in the injured tissue was assessed as the ratio of Ga-67 localized in the bruise to the Ga-67 localized in the noninjured area of the same geometry. During the first 12 days after injury, both (He-Ne laser) treated and nontreated rats healed rapidly with no observable differences in Ga-67 localization. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 1986;8(2):93-96.
