Abstract

The invention relates to devices and methods for delivering radiation to regions of a sinus cavity, which includes the emission and propagation of energy in the form of rays or waves, including light, into a nasal cavity. Phototherapeutic apparatuses of the invention are adapted to treat a body cavity and comprise, for example, a light source, and an insertion member, having a distal end, optically coupleable to the light source and configured to be at least partially inserted into the body cavity to deliver light onto a target tissue.
