An apparatus particularly, but not exclusively, useful for treating a male for impotence, includes a source of low-power light radiation (2), a radiation applicator (4) for holding the male's penis (P), and for applying thereto radiation from the source sufficient to induce relaxation of the walls of the blood vessels supplying blood to the corpora cavernosa of the penis. Preferably the light radiation is monochromatic laser radiation of a wavelength of 440 nm to 960 nm, applied at a level of 20 milli-watts to 2000 milli-watts per square centimeter, for a total exposure of 50 joule to 200 joule per square centimeter, in a total treatment time of 2 minutes to 40 minutes. The applicator is coupled to the radiation source by a distributor (6) which moves the radiation to produce at least one radiation exposure cycle including a forward stroke, and a return stroke.

L'invention concerne un appareil particulièrement, mais pas exclusivement, utile pour traiter l'impuissance chez un homme. L'appareil comporte une source de rayonnement lumineux de faible puissance, et un applicateur de rayonnement servant à tenir le pénis de l'homme et à appliquer à celui-ci un rayonnement provenant de la source, ce rayonnement étant suffisant pour provoquer un relâchement des parois des vaisseaux sanguins alimentant en sang les corps caverneux du pénis. De préférence, le rayonnement lumineux est un rayonnement laser monochromatique d'une longueur d'onde de 440-960 nm, qui est appliqué à une intensité de 20-2000 milliwatts par centimètre carré, en vue d'une exposition totale de 50-200 joules par centimètre carré, pendant une durée totale de traitement de 2-40 minutes. L'applicateur est couplé à la source de rayonnement par un distributeur qui déplace le rayonnement de façon à produire au moins un cycle d'exposition aux rayonnement comportant un trajet d'aller et un trajet de retour.
