In majority of the cases, a positive effect can be observed upon application of Laser Agnis-L01 in treatment regime of bone fractures. Posistive effect of the laser was observed in 66,7 per cent, no change in 22,2 per cent and negative effect in 11,1 per cent of the rabbits in experiment. To accelerate healing of bone fractures, we recommend the following parameters in treatment regimen with Agnis-L01: impulse power 1,5 W, impulse frequency 250 Hz, modulation frequency 50 Hz and duration of treatment episode 240 seconds, 5 squares of treatment, 1 dosage per day, 10 treatment episodes. Treatment should start from day 4 after occurrence of fracture. Efficacy of laser treatment depend on individual properties of an animal. Treatment of bone fractures is complex, laser treatment could be an element of the treatment regimen
