Therapeutic Laser Systems Improve Quality of Life and Save in Healthcare

Global population aging is unprecedented: the global population of children under age five is expected to fall by 49 million by midcentury, while the number of people over age 60 will grow by 1.2 billion, according to the United Nations. An aging population brings with it increased demands on healthcare systems. Governments have to reduce healthcare costs while maintaining quality of life. Today, illnesses are treated according to symptoms, but, in the future, with the help of lasers it will be possible to detect and cure illnesses before their critical phase and, hence, cut the high costs of hospitalization.
