Abstract

mILIB (Intravascular Laser Irradiation in the Modified Bloodstream) presents itself as one more photobiomodulation technique, among the many therapeutic possibilities we know. The advantage in this case is the possibility of making application in a systemic way in which the organism as a whole is benefited. The use of the red therapeutic laser in a transcutaneous way, has been a great option as an added therapeutic value to the treatment of several pathologies, providing systemic stimuli, similar to hemotherapy. Thus, mILIB presents itself as an effective and increasingly widespread technique for professionals working with photobiomodulation.
