DEVICES AND METHODS FOR TARGETED NASAL PHOTOTHERAPY

摘要

The invention is directed to therapy devices for providing therapeutic light to a target region of tissue within a nasal cavity. The devices are adapted to include a light source communicating with a distal end of the first insertion member, wherein light from the light source illuminates a target region of tissue within a nasal cavity posterior to a limen nasi of the nasal cavity, and further wherein the insertion member is configured to prevent illumination of a region of tissue anterior to the limen nasi. The devices are further adapted to be positioned within the nasal cavity by a user without observing the location of the distal tip.
