FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine, namely to mammalogy, also aims at optimised therapy of palpable benign breast abnormalities. The patient is exposed to laser irradiation with a diode laser ensured by ultrasound-aided introduction of a light guide in an abnormality. Herewith, wavelength is 690-1270 nm, and power is 1.8-4.5 Wt. While irradiation, temperature is measured along the perimetre of a palpable abnormality with an acoustic metre. At temperature 42-55°C, the exposure is terminated. In fibrous adenoma, the exposure is terminated at temperature 50-55°C. For papillary cyst, temperature is 42-45°C.

EFFECT: method aims at high-grade restoration of organ structure and function by optimised therapy of palpable benign breast abnormalities.
