Fluorescence Enhancement Effect of TiO2 Nanoparticles and Application for Photodynamic Diagnosis. [PDF]
Photodynamic diagnosis (PDD) can improve diagnostic accuracy by using PDD agents such as 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA). However, the weakness and photobleaching of fluorescence of PDD agents may lead to insufficient fluorescence visibility for the ...

Fluorescence detection of deep intramucosal cancer excited by green light for photodynamic diagnosis using protoporphyrin IX induced by 5-aminolevulinic acid: an ex vivo study. [PDF]
. Significance: The diagnostic depth of photodynamic diagnosis (PDD) for gastric cancer with protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) is limited, which leads to missing intramucosal cancers in screening and surgery.
