Investigation of 1450 nm Infrared Light for Clinical Nerve Stimulation

In this study, parameters for the clinical application of optical neural stimulation were developed. Two pulsed diode lasers, with wavelengths centered at 1875 nm and 1450 nm respectively, were used to elicit compound motor action potentials (CMAPs) in Sprague-Dawley rats via irradiation of the scia...
