Abstract

In the present work we have investigated the in vivo effect of tissue temperature and laser parameters on the quantum efficiency of laser-induced photodissociation of oxyhemoglobin (HbO₂) in cutaneous blood vessels by measuring the change in the oxygen saturation of arterial blood. Arterial oxygen saturation (SaO₂) was measured using the method of fingertip pulse oximetry. It is shown that there is a local decrease in the local oxygen saturation upon laser irradiation by approximately 10% . Raising the local temperature of the skin tissue up to 42°C leads to an increase in the quantum efficiency of the photodissociation of HbO₂ by approximately 1,5% upon irradiation with a wavelength of 860 nm. The obtained results can be used in the clinical phototherapy practice.
