To use laser hyperthermia (laserthermia) as a form of cancer therapy in the field of oral surgery, we have conducted several basic studies. Using rabbits, we recently investigated the differences between hyperthermia by laser light and by other means. More specifically, we experimentally compared the effects of the artificial sapphire probe commonly used for laserthermia and a new titanium probe of the same form which transmits heat but not laser light.Results: 1)Ultrasonography showed that laserthermia penetrates deeper into the tissue than conventional hyperthermia.2)Histo-pathological examination revealed that in identical conditions laserthermia has greater invasiveness in normal tissue than conventional hyperthermia.
