1.	Pain (Aches) 01/01/2014 - "However, in most studies laser therapy was associated with significant reduction in the intensity and frequency of pain compared with other treatment strategies, a few studies revealed that between laser and placebo group there was not any significant difference according to the analgesic effect. " 04/01/2013 - "The aims of this study were the following: 1. verify whether low-intensity laser therapy would promote significant pain remission; 2. evaluate whether this changes orofacial myofunctional conditions in the sample, as tested, using the Orofacial Myofunctional Evaluation with Scores (OMES); and 3. evaluate whether or not the pain improvement would remain stable after a 30-day follow-up for pain conditions. " 01/01/2000 - "Two trials using electromagnetic therapy produced a significant reduction in pain (p <0.01) with three to four weeks of daily (eight hours per day) therapy sessions; and three using laser therapy did not differ significantly from a placebo (p=0.20) for six to 10 sessions of treatment. " 01/01/1998 - "Two trials using electromagnetic therapy produced a significant reduction in pain (p <0.01) with three to four weeks of daily (eight hours per day) therapy sessions; and three using laser therapy did not differ significantly from a placebo (p=0.20) for six to 10 sessions of treatment. " 01/01/2008 - "The results show that, in patients with lateral epicondylitis, a brace has a shorter beneficial effect than US and laser therapy in reducing pain, and that laser therapy is more effective than the brace and US treatment in improving grip strength."
2.	Neoplasms (Cancer) 08/01/2010 - "In conclusion, transoral laser surgery is feasible in elderly patients with early stage glottic cancer, providing good results in terms of disease-free survival, organ preservation and quality of life. " 01/01/2009 - "Early stage glottic cancer can be successfully treated with open surgery, LASER surgery or radiotherapy. " 07/01/2006 - "The objective of this study was two-fold: to optimize NP targeting to real tumor (human) cells and to better understand physical mechanisms of cell damage for improved control of the laser ablation. " 10/01/2013 - "Previous studies have shown that laser ablation with the multifiber technique is effective in the treatment of liver tumors. " 02/01/2002 - "According to our experience, we can conclude that endoscopic laser surgery is an efficacious and cost-effective treatment for early stage glottic cancer."
3.	Cicatrix (Scar) 05/01/2011 - "To investigate the efficacy of 1550-nm (Fraxel SR1500 RE:Store; Solta Medical, Hayward, California) nonablative laser treatment of facial surgical scars. " 09/01/2008 - "We investigated the efficacy of purely non-ablative laser therapy in order to improve the appearance and quality of these scars. " 01/01/1998 - "We conclude that laser therapy does not cause normalization of compliance, or improvement in the deeper part of the emphysematous lung, but rather a peripheral volume reduction and "encasement effect" on the lungs as a result of fibrotic scars." 11/01/2015 - "Clinical Improvement and Safety of Ablative Fractional Laser Therapy for Post-Surgical Scars: A Systematic Review of Randomized Controlled Trials." 07/01/2015 - "The main goal of our study was to compare the quality of resulting facials scar 12 weeks after single and combined laser therapy. "
4.	Prostatic Hyperplasia (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia) 09/30/2014 - "Laser vaporization of the prostate is considered to be a promising treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and efficiency of vaporization and hemostasis are both important parameters for such treatment. " 07/01/2013 - "[Efficacy of a high-power laser vaporization in comparison with a monopolar transurethral resection in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia: results of a 6-months follow-up]." 05/01/2012 - "Pilot results of prostatic adenoma treatment with diode laser (940 nm) in 94 patients showed high efficacy of laser vaporization of the prostate. " 04/01/1997 - "Benign prostatic hyperplasia--which tests predict good outcomes following transurethral resection of the prostate and the role of laser vaporization in treatment." 10/01/2015 - "Laser vaporization is a safe and effective alternative to TURP in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) for carefully selected patients. "
5.	Varicose Veins (Varicose Vein) 04/01/2010 - "Dermatologists have played an important role in the development of minimal invasive therapies Ultrasound guided foam sclerotherapy, endovenous laser therapy and radiofrequency ablation are the most commonly used therapies, and challenge surgery as the gold standard of care in patients with varicose veins. " 01/01/2009 - "Of the new therapies, ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy, endovenous laser therapy, and radiofrequency ablation are the most common and challenge surgery as the "gold standard" of care for patients with varicose veins. " 07/01/2013 - "Endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) has been demonstrated to be an effective treatment for lower limb varicose veins in the short and midterm results. " 09/01/2007 - "Endovenous laser therapy (EVLT) for the treatment of varicose veins has been shown to be effective and relatively safe. " 02/01/2005 - "Endovenous laser therapy (EVLT) is a new, minimally invasive therapeutic option for treating primary varicose veins and provides an effective and safe alternative to conventional surgical management (stripping).
