About this ebook
Photodynamic Therapy Uses explores the innovative medical science of photodynamic therapy (PDT), a light-based treatment utilizing photosensitizers and light sources to target and destroy diseased cells.
This minimally invasive treatment holds promise in oncology and dermatology, offering a potentially less harmful alternative for conditions like cancer.
PDT leverages photochemistry and photobiology, where specific light wavelengths activate photosensitizers to produce reactive oxygen species, selectively eliminating targeted cells.
