LASER PHOTOTHERAPY A phototherapy system and method for providing light therapy to reduce the bilirubin level in infants wherein a laser is used as the source of light radiation. The light radiation form the laser is transmitted at a predetermined wavelength through an optical fiber to a fiberoptic pad where it radiates toward the infant. In one embodiment, a plurality of infants may be treated through a plurality of fiberoptic pads, all receiving the light radiation from a common laser. In such embodiment, a control means is also provided to detect the intensity of light impinging upon the infant and using that value of intensity to control the light radiation transmitted to the fiberoptic pad.
