Trial of light therapy treatment:
For 7 consecutive days in May, RevitaVet light therapy was applied for 20 minutes at #2 setting immediately after bandage and topicals removed. To secure infrared pad on leg, it was wrapped with polo.

Thermal Imaging:
The LH leg treatment area was imaged with a thermal camera every day before & after RevitaVet treatment to determine if there was a pattern of increased circulation .  Below is a representative example from 5/25/2007.
The red pattern at the treatment site in the “after image” indicates increased local circulation immediately after a 20 minute treatment with RevitaVet.
