MedX Rehab Laser Console System

The system includes a handheld laser applicator with three 450 mW GaAlAs diodes (808 nm) and two hands-free Super-Luminous Diode (SLD) cluster heads, each 1000 mW, combining visible red (633 nm) and near-infrared (870 nm) light for broad-area treatment.

The console features three output ports, allowing clinicians to use multiple applicators at the same time—for example, both SLD clusters and the laser applicator—to treat several areas in one session efficiently.

Yes. Each cluster head includes flexible straps for hands-free application, enabling unattended therapy while the console tracks time and energy delivered for each active port.

The laser applicator emits a focused, coherent Class IIIb laser beam for precise deep-tissue therapy. The SLD clusters emit non-coherent, broad-area light for surface and mid-depth coverage. Using both allows targeted and general treatment within the same session.

Yes, for the laser applicator component. Because it emits a coherent Class IIIb beam, both clinician and patient should wear laser safety glasses. The SLD clusters do not typically require goggles but should still follow standard light-safety precautions.

The MedX 3118 is indicated for musculoskeletal pain management, inflammation reduction, wound healing, and improved tissue recovery following injury or surgery. It is also used in physiotherapy, chiropractic, and sports medicine clinics for chronic pain and soft-tissue repair.

The console automatically calculates total joules delivered based on power, mode, and time selected. Each port displays live energy output and stops automatically when the programmed dose is reached.

Yes. Clinicians can choose continuous mode for chronic or deep-tissue pain and pulsed mode for acute injuries or sensitive tissues. Pulsed mode helps minimize thermal buildup during treatment.

Typical settings are 4–8 J/cm² for superficial tissues and 8–12 J/cm² for deeper structures. The system’s display ensures accurate dosage and consistency between treatments.

Annual calibration is recommended to confirm diode accuracy and maintain optimal performance. Regular maintenance ensures consistent power output and compliance with safety standards.

Yes. Clinicians can operate multiple ports at once—for example, using both SLD clusters on large muscle groups and the laser probe on a focal trigger point. Each port is independently monitored for energy and time.

Combining both light sources allows for dual-depth treatment—laser energy reaches deeper structures while SLD clusters provide surface-level coverage. This approach enhances outcomes and reduces total treatment time.

Each output port is microprocessor-controlled with independent timers and energy counters. This ensures accurate, reproducible treatment regardless of how many probes are active.

The console includes interlocks that automatically disable emission if a probe disconnects, and visual indicators confirm active channels. Audible alerts signal session completion or errors for added safety.

Clinicians can store custom protocols within the console memory, allowing quick setup for repeat patients and consistent application of evidence-based settings.

The system should be inspected annually and cleaned after each use. Keeping optics clear and cables untangled helps extend diode life and maintain consistent energy output.

Yes. It is compatible with most MedX laser and SLD probes that use the same connector type. Existing applicators can be verified and recalibrated for use with the 3118 console.

Most treatments last 1–3 minutes per point for laser probes and 5–10 minutes for larger areas using SLD clusters. The system automatically stops when the programmed energy dose is delivered.

It provides triple-port operation, energy feedback, customizable protocols, and dual light modalities—offering greater flexibility, faster treatments, and higher clinical efficiency than smaller single-probe devices.

Clinicians should complete a recognized photobiomodulation or laser safety course covering parameters such as wavelength, power density, energy dosage, and contraindications. This ensures consistent, safe, and effective outcomes.

Yes. MedX recommends that clinical laser systems be professionally tested and calibrated annually starting in year three of use. This ensures that output levels remain accurate for safe and effective treatment. MedX Health performs all official calibration, testing, and repairs directly through their technical service department. Patients and clinics can contact MedX for service support, testing requests, or repair arrangements via their website, phone, or email.
