N/A Avascular Necrosis of Femoral Head. In this study, the laser fluence (energy) is transmitted through the skin to the anatomical location of the affected hip (15 points for each joint). The periods of radiations include 9 courses (each course consists of 10 sessions) and a total of 90 sessions over a period of 9 months. The Selected points are those which is recommended in guidelines for acupuncture procedures to control hip pain. The recommended lasers are RED (200 mw) and IR (300 mw) and the maximum fluence (energy) is 30 joules per centimeter squared (30 J/cm2). The laser therapy schedules in each period are ten sessions every two days with a week interval and then the next period will start again. Undecided - It is not yet known if there will be a plan to make this available Justification or reason for indecision in sharing IPD is No more information
