Painful Knee Osteoarthritis Infrared Light Dose
900-1000 nm, 10 mW/cm^2, 300 s, 3 J/cm^2, 2; 900-1000 nm, 11.2 mW/cm^2, 180 s, 2J/cm^2; knee point targets, reduced pain in knee osteoarthritis .

833 nm and 630 nm pulsed and continuous to two knee points decreased osteoarthritis pain. However, treatment doses as described do not add up to J/cm^2 stated, so I’m not sure what to make of this.
808 nm, 100 mW, 7 points each side, 56 J, 16 treatments combined with exercise reduced osteoarthritis knee pain and inflammation
905 nm, 640 nm, 875 nm, 100 mW/cm^2, 3 points on the knee, 7.85 J per knee, 23.55 J per session, 2 sessions per week for 5 weeks (10), combined with exercise, reduced osteoarthritis knee pain.
808 nm, 50 mW, 42 J, 71.2 J/cm^2, spot size 0.28, combined with stem cell injection, target at knee, prevented inflammation and degeneration
660 nm/10 mW/30.6 J/point, 3 points, and 850 nm/30 mW/94.5 J/point, 3 points decreased exercise recovery time.
904 nm at 20 mW/cm^2 for 270 seconds equalling 5.4J decreased Achilles tendinitis.
8 treatments, 810 nm and 980 nm, 6.6 +-1.3 J/cm^2 over 18 days. Four 18-day sessions in one year improved tendonitis. Results included increased strength, decreased pain, and better grip.
904 nm, 6 mW/cm^2, 7 J/cm^2, 1,200 s, 1 treatment per 4 hours for 20 hours, reduced post-herpetic neuralgia pain (10=worst) from 8.54 to between zero and three.
633 nm, 50 mW, 2 J/cm^2, 300 second treatments, 3 treatments/week for 1 week reduced post-herpetic neuralgia pain
