Laser Specklometer, Speckle-Optical Diagnostics and Laser Hemotherapy in Treatment of Diseases of Peripheral Nervous System
Development of modern medicine is closely connected with the achievements of science and technology. The tendency of medicine to obtain the needed amount of information about objects without damage or influence leads to the necessity of creation of highly sensitive non-contact methods. In the last decade, a number of interesting cross-disciplinary, medical and optical, scientifically applied schools appeared. Different optical devices and gadgets, for example, laser surgical scalpels, fiber gastroscopes, ophthalmologic devices for laser microsurgery, laser therapeutic units, etc., were developed and found wide clinical application. But the scope of optical possibilities is not limited by the developments named above. Introduction of speckle-optical methods, which use coherent characteristics of laser radiation, is rather prospective for medical instrument making. During its short history (in fact from 1978), speckle-optics accumulated a large number of different methods of measurement in different technical areas of physics. But the factual material concerning medicine and biology is rather small. As it was demonstrated in Chap. 2, the classical and holography interferometry, where the amplitude correlation participates, can be used only for the study of transparent phase microobjects: separate cells, fibers, microvessels [1]. More complex systems, for example, ensemble of cells, whole muscles, integumentary tissues, intensively scatter light. In this case, the measurements on the basis of intensity correlation, namely methods of speckle-interferometry and spectroscopy of optical shift, possess large possibilities of principal character. As it was shown in Chap. 4 (see Fig. 4.1) at radiation with coherent light of the rough surface diffusely scattered radiation forms in the observation plane typical “spot” structure of illumination called a speckle-image. In this case, all the points of the illuminated by laser radiation diffusive surface send coherent interfering waves onto observer’s retina. Image of each point of the surface on the retina is a diffraction pattern, which is determined by the optical system of the eye. Because of interference of these diffraction patterns, the surface of the object seems spotty to the observer, or covered with “speckles” as it is said

today. Recently, the speckle-optical methods for measurement of real-time velocities and shifts have been developed intensively. This is determined by the combination of traditional organization of optical methods such as contactlessness, remoteness, high accuracy with the possibility of determination of movement parameters and coordinates of the object, which scatte
