Validation of a Monte Carlo Modelling Based Dosimetry of Extraoral Photobiomodulation.

An in vivo validation study was performed to confirm the accuracy of extraoral photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) dosimetry determined by modelling. The Monte Carlo technique was utilized to calculate the fluence rate and absorbed power of light delivered through multi-layered tissue. Optical properties used during Monte Carlo simulations were taken from the literature.
