Abstract

We present the results from numerical simulation of the interaction of laser optical radiation with myoglobin (Mb) and oxymyoglobin (MbO₂) in muscle tissue. It is shown that the photodissociation of MbO₂ can modify the concentration of oxygen (O₂) in the muscle tissue directly at the irradiation zone. The criteria of the effectiveness of the combined effect of biological tissue oxygenation by two-wavelength laser radiation are considered.
