The Velmi thermal-laser therapeutic system for treatment of genital human papillomavirus (HPV) infection using photoactivated drug is described. The results of clinical use of this method are discussed. The efficacy of HPV elimination in the uterine cervix was supported by conventional clinical methods of HPV diagnosis (including electron microscopy).
