Non-invasive systems and methods for in-situ photobiomodulation
First Claim
1. A method for neuronal stimulation in a subject, comprising:
- administering at least one biocompatible phosphorescent molecule to a region of a subject in need of neuronal stimulation, wherein the at least one biocompatible phosphorescent molecule is selected to have an emitted energy to be of a wavelength sufficient to cause the neuronal stimulation and increases a wavelength of an X-ray initiation energy; and
applying the X-ray initiation energy from at least one source, wherein the X-ray initiation energy is converted by the at least one biocompatible phosphorescent molecule into the emitted energy that directly causes neuronal stimulation in the region of the subject.

Abstract
Products, compositions, systems, and methods for modifying a target structure which mediates or is associated with a biological activity, including treatment of conditions, disorders, or diseases mediated by or associated with a target structure, such as a virus, cell, subcellular structure or extracellular structure. The methods may be performed in situ in a non-invasive manner by application of an initiation energy to a subject thus producing an effect on or change to the target structure directly or via a modulation agent. The methods may further be performed by application of an initiation energy to a subject in situ to activate a pharmaceutical agent directly or via an energy modulation agent, optionally in the presence of one or more plasmonics active agents, thus producing an effect on or change to the target structure. Kits containing products or compositions formulated or configured and systems for use in practicing these methods.
