Photobiomodulation in the Brain
This is a comprehensive introduction to an important field of clinical practice that will support the transformation of healthcare in a very positive direction. PBM offers a perspective on how people can take more ownership of their health and wellbeing using safe, reliable, low cost, easily deployed tools. More study is needed to hone the application of these techniques and their integration into the existing healthcare delivery system.
