Photodynamic Diagnosis and Therapy for Peritoneal Carcinomatosis: Emerging Perspectives. [PDF]

open access: yesCancers (Basel), 2020
Peritoneal carcinomatosis occurs frequently in patients with advanced stage gastrointestinal and gynecological cancers. The wide-spread peritoneal micrometastases indicate a poor outlook, as the tumors are difficult to diagnose and challenging to completely eradicate with cytoreductive surgery and chemotherapeutics.

Clinical application of photodynamic diagnosis and photodynamic therapy for gynecologic malignant diseases: A review

open access: yesPhotodiagnosis and Photodynamic Therapy, 2018
Several types of photosensitizers such as 5-aminolevulinic acid are progenitors of protoporphyrin IX (PpIX). PpIX accumulates in cancer cells and has photosensitivity. Based on these characteristics, they are used in photodynamic diagnosis (PDD) and photodynamic therapy (PDT).

The use of 5-aminolevulinic acid and its derivatives in photodynamic therapy and diagnosis [PDF]

open access: yesBiuletyn Wojskowej Akademii Technicznej, 2018
5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) is used as a drug in the photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photodynamic diagnosis (PDD) of cancer. Combined with irradiation at the appropriate wavelength, it is used as a photosensitizer precursor to identify/kill tumour cells.
