A therapeutic treatment apparatus (10) for photostimulation of biological tissue (20, 30, 40) that includes at least one treatment radiation source source (50) configured to radiate energy at a predetermined wavelength selected from the range approximately between 400 and 1,500 nanometers and adapted to illuminate the biological tissue (20, 30, 40). The apparatus further incoporates an infrared camera (110) configured to detect infrared radiation and adapted to produce image signals corresponding to the detected radiation. A data processing and recording device (115) is also included that is capable of receiving and processing the image signals and is adapted to generate an electronic signal in the form of a pluraity of frames corresponding to the image signals. The data processing and recording device (115) is also configured to capture and analyze the frames to quantify the radiation emitted by the biological tissue in units of measurement selected from the group including wavelength, radiance, luminosity, area, volume, tenperature, change in temperature, rate of change of temperature, relative temperature, energy, change in energy, rate of change of energy, and relative energy. The data processing and recording device (110) is also configured to detect, block, and/or subtract the energy emitted from the radiation source (50) that is reflected by the target (20, 30, 40) when quantifying the energy emitted by the biological tissue (20, 30, 40) sans the reflected energy. A method for using the device (10) is also described. |
