Abstract
Ultraviolet light is applied to a patient's blood while that blood remains in the body. A port is surgically implanted in the patient. A UV pack or a UV device is connectable to the port. The UV pack has a battery or other power supply and a UV light source. The UV light source is typically LEDs. The UV pack is connected to the port via a tube or catheter. A fiber optic strand or bundle runs through the tube to provide the UV light to the blood. Similarly, the UV device is connected to the port via a tube or catheter. A fiber optic bundle or other light guide directs the light to the blood.
