Background and Objective: Photodynamic therapy (PDT) using 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA)-induced protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) for sensitization is a promising treatment for carcinoma in situ and diffuse premalignant changes of the bladder. We studied the biodistribution of PpIX in a range of tissues with
## Background: Photodynamic therapy (pdt) is an experimental approach for treating prostate cancer localized to the gland that does not involve surgery or irradiation. second-generation photosensitizers 5-aminolevulinic acid (ala) and aluminum disulfonated phthalocyanine (als2pc) were studied in th
