FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Erchonia Medical, Inc. announces that on June 8, 2004 the United States Patent Office issued U.S. Patent No. 6,746,473 to Erchonia Medical, Inc. covering all hand-held laser devices with more than one laser.
This enables Erchonia Medical, Inc., to offer the only patented, handheld, true multi-laser devices as compared to various other “multi-LED” devices that often claim to be lasers, when in fact, they are not. Multi-diode laser components enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the devices in which they are utilized.
“This patent is a testament to Erchonia’s continuing commitment to be the world leader in low level laser technology and to consistently push the boundaries of physics, technology and medical applications to seek the answers to human pain and suffering,” states Charlie Shanks, VP of Sales and Marketing.
“Erchonia has consistently lead the world in state-of-the-art healing laser technology and manufacturing, from our very earliest products to our present PL4000 and PL5000 lasers that are in use throughout the world today.”
“Erchonia was the very first low level laser manufacturer to receive the FDA’s 510(k) market clearance for the treatment of chronic pain, and in addition to this patent, Erchonia is anticipating a second FDA clearance this summer,” says Mr. Shanks.
