Episode notes
Wavelengths: Energy and Penetration
- Wavelength choice depends on energy amount and target tissue depth.
- Short wavelengths have high energy but shallow penetration; longer wavelengths reach deeper but with less energy per photon.
Water Dominates Light Absorption
- Tissue absorption depends more on water than melanin or hemoglobin.
- Water's prevalence makes absorption curves more complex than commonly presented.
Beyond The Magic Photon
- Specific biochemical pathways in PBM aren't limited to narrow wavelengths.
- Multiple cellular components respond broadly to various wavelengths, not a single "magic photon."
