Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Intravascular Laser Irradiation of Blood(ILIB) by the live blood analysis. Methods : We had analysed the changing forms of the live blood samples with Ultra Darkfield Microscope before and after Intravascular Laser Irradiation of Blood. Results and Conclusion : 1. Nomal Erythrocytes were increased significantly after ILIB by the live blood analysis. 2. Poikilocytes were decreased significantly after ILIB by the live blood analysis. 3. Target Cells were decreased significantly after ILIB by the live blood analysis. 4. Somatid was improved significantly after ILIB by the live blood analysis. 5.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of ILIB(Intravascular Laser Irradiation of blood) on Hyperfibrinogenemia. 20 patients with fibrinogen level of over $400mg／d{\ell}$ were treated with IUB. After !0 times' treatment, changes of fibrinogen level and clinical symptom were observed. The results were as follows: 1. Fibrinogen level was decreased in all of cases. 2. Most cases were suffered from neural symptoms(headache, palpitation, etc), circulatory symptoms (dizziness, numbness, deficiency of sensation, etc), musculo-skeletal symptoms(L.B.P, neck stiffness, arthralgia, etc.), fatigue, pollakiuria, constipation. After treatment, neural and circulatory symptoms were improved considerably.

Background : Intravascular Laser Irrardiation of Blood(ILIB) is used in disorder of cerebral and peripheral blood circulation, dysfunction of brain, atherosclerosis etc., but there are little study about ILIB in oriental medicine. We wished to assess the efficacy of ILIB for the treatment of cerebral infarction. Method : The study group comprised 40 patients who arrived at hospital during 48 hours after attack. All patient were divided into two group. The control group was treated with Uhuangcheongsimhuan(牛黃淸心丸), Seonghyangjeonggisan(星香正氣散), acupuncture therapy only, while the ILIB group was treated with above therapy plus 5 days of irradiation of He-Ne Laser(1.8~2.5mW, 50min. per day). In rat model of middle cerebral artery(MCA) occlusion, the control group was not treated, while the ILIB group was treated with irradiation of He-Ne Laser(1.8~2.5mW, 24sec.). Result : 1. Symptom improve scores did not showed significant difference between control and ILIB group. 2. Vasoreactivity of carotid siphon did not showed significant difference between control and ILIB group. 3. Vasoreactivity of radial artery did not showed significant difference between control and ILIB group. 4. PT a-PTT did not showed significant changes between before and after treatment in both group. Fibrinogen significantly increased after treatment in ILIB group(p<0.05)), but it was in normal degree. 5. ILIB showed a significant decrease of brain ischemic area and edema in rat model of middle cerebral artery(MCA) occlusion. Conclusion : These findings suggest that additional treatment of ILIB is not more useful than traditional therapy only in acute cerebral infarction. But ILIB showed potential effect in rat model of MCA occlusion. So further investigation will be necessary.

Purpose : Intravascular Laser Irradiation on Blood(ILlB) therapy has been usedto various circulatory diseases recently. In this study, we sought to find out the effects of ILIB on hyperlipidemia . Material and Methods : In this study of 163 patients with hyperlipidemia , we observed change of total cholesterol and triglyceride in serum after ILIB therapy. Results and Conclusion : In patients with hyperlipidemia , total cholesterol mean values decreased from $240.04{\pm}56.23$mg/dL to $214.90{\pm}45.84$mg/dL and triglyceride mean values decreased from $304.98{\pm}134.37$mg/dL to $244.05{\pm}120.46$mg/dL, after ILIB thetapy. We evaluated that ILIB therapy reduced total cholesterol and triglyceride (p<0.001) in patients with hyperlipidemia and IUB therapy is more effective to patients with hyperlipidemia than normal(p<0.001).

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Intravascular Laser Irradiation of Blood(ILlB) by the live blood analysis. Methods : We had analysed the changing forms of the live blood samples with Ultra Darkfield Microscope before and after Intravascular Laser Irradiation of Blood. Results : 1. Somatid did not showed significant change. 2. In the rouleau of red blood cells was decreased significantly. 3. In the morphological change of red blood cells, Burr cell, Ovalocyte and Poikilocyte were decreased significantly, but Acanthocyte and Target cell were increased significantly. 4. In the abnormal matters in plasma, the Cholesterol cristal did not showed significant change, but the Aggregation of platelet, Lipids, Spicule, Leucocyte, Uric acid cristal did showed a little significant decrease. Conclusion : These findings suggest that live blood analysis is useful to judge the effect of treatment and diagnosis in oriental medicine, and with the effect of Intravascular Laser Irradiation of Blood, it had showed significant effect on rouleau of red blood cells, morphological change of red blood cells and abnormal matters in plasma.

Objectives : The purpose of study was to investigate the effect of ILlB(intravascular laser irradiation of blood) on serum lipoprotein(a) Methods : The 12 case is diagnosed as cerebrovascular diseases on computed tomograghy. The 18 case is not observed abnormality on computed tomograghy but, they have neurological sign. Blood test was enforced on the first medical examination, The 15 case with plasma lipoprotein(a) greater than 30 mg/dl have been classified into abnormal group and the 15 case of less than 30 mg/dl have been classified into control group. after ten times ILlB, It was observed that the change of plasma lipoprotein(a) and a fibrinogen of blood clotting factor. Conclusions : 1. After ten times ILlB, plasma lipoprotein(a) numerical value was decreased on 13 case of abnormal group. 2. Plasma lipoprotein(a) numerical value was decreased on 5 case of control group. 3. The twenty in fifteen patient's with hyperlipoproteinemias have been fibrinogenemias and after ILIB treatment, in the all of 16 case with hyperfibrinogenemia in the first medical examination to both abnormal and control group, plasma fibrinogen numerical value was decreased.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate the significance of the Oriental medical treatment using He-Ne laser with low energy intravascular Laser Irradiation of Blood(ILIB) through the superficial venules. Methods : The investigation of details connected with the superficial venules in the literature is performed. The investigation of details connected with the pricking blood techniques through the superficial venules in the literature is performed. The classification of the pricking blood techniques through the superficial venules by the blood-letting puncture methods in the literature is performed. The arrangement of domestic clinical treatises on the effectiveness of medical treatment using He-Ne laser with low energy ILIB through the superficial venules is performed. The consideration on the methodology for the improvement of the clinical effectiveness of He-Ne laser with low energy ILIB through superficial venules is performed. Results and Conclusions : The superficial venules are small arteries, veins and capillaries in the superficial region of the human body. In the pricking blood techniques, there are the blood-letting puncture using the implement of acupuncture to the Jing points, Extra points and superficial blood vessels and the acupuncture using the Hirudo. The methods of the blood-letting puncture are classified into the venous blood-letting puncture, the pricking , the picking out white fiber-like substances from the subcutaneous tissue, the cluster needling, the scattered needling, the blood-letting puncture of the tready collateral branch of the large channel and the blood-letting puncture of skin. The He-Ne laser with low energy ILIB through the superficial venules belongs to the Oriental medical treatment as the method of the blood-letting puncture in the vein of cubital fossa. The He-Ne laser with low energy ILIB has an effect on hyperfibrinogenemia, hyperlipidemia, speech and motor dysfunction in the case of cerebral infarction, headache, dizziness, pain and numbness. It is considered that fundamental research on the biological change of the human body, the experimental animal and the unicellular animal, and research on the effectiveness and the safety, and the development of He-Ne laser with low energy ILIB of an effective wavelength range are necessary.
