European Journal of Cancer, 1992
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been developed over the past decade into a useful treatment for several types of solid cancers in man. This unique therapy requires a photosensitiser accumulated in tumours and local activation by visible light generally delivered from lasers and delivered to the patient through various types of fibers and endoscopes. PDT

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a selective therapeutic approach involving uptake of a sensitizer by the target cells followed by their destruction on lightinduced activation of the chemical. Although the technique was discovered at the turn of the 20th century, its widespread use has awaited the development of suitable drugs and light sources (Brown ...

Journal of Laser Applications, 1995
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a new treatment for solid tumors utilizing the combined action of light and a photosensitizing drug. Laser–fiber optic delivery systems make it practical to treat superficial and interstitial cancers, including malignancies of the skin, head and neck, esophagus, endobronchial tract, stomach, urinary bladder, female genital

Dermatologic Clinics, 2014
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) relies on the interaction between a photosensitizer, the appropriate wavelength, and oxygen to cause cell death. First introduced about 100 years ago, PDT has continued to evolve in dermatology into a safe and effective treatment option for several dermatologic conditions.

Advances in Dermatology, 2006
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) utilizes a photosensitizer, a light source, and molecular oxygen to selectively destroy cells. In dermatology, the photosensitizers accumulate in non-melanoma skin cancer cells, actinically damaged skin cells and actinic keratoses (AK), and in the pilosebaceous units.

Photochemistry and Photobiology, 1985
Photodynamic therapy for treatment of malignant tumors uses certain porphyrins as relatively tumor-selective photosensitizers. A wide variety of tumors take up and retain these materials, which can result in complete eradication of the local tumor provided that light of the proper wavelength and sufficient dose is used.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a photochemical process that uses a photosensitizer drug activated by laser light to produce mucosal ablation. Porfimer sodium PDT has proved long-term efficacy and durability in the treatment of Barrett's esophagus and high-grade dysplasia and early esophageal adenocarcinoma.

Photodynamic therapy for cholangiocarcinoma
Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery, 2001The prognosis of nonresectable cholangiocarcinoma is dismal, and in Bismuth type III and IV tumors relief of jaundice is seldom achieved, despite successful endoprosthesis insertion. Therefore, we evaluated additional photodynamic therapy in patients who failed to respond to endoprostheses insertion.

Update on Photodynamic Therapy
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2003To date, photodynamic therapy with verteporfin has been shown to benefit those patients with age-related molecular degeneration and choroidal neovascularization that is subfoveal and predominately classic (> 50%). As of this writing, the Food and Drug Administration is requiring additional data before verteporfin is approved for treatment of occult ...
