The tumoricidal effect of interstitial photodynamic therapy (IPDT) using Photofrin was found to increase when combined with the bioreductive alkylating agent mitomycin C (MMC) and, to a lesser extent, with the indoloquinone E09. When MMC was given prior to IPDT of RIF I turnours, the light dose requ
## Abstract ## Background and Objectives Photodynamic therapy is based on an interaction of a drug and light in oxygenated tissue. The photosensitizing drug Foscan® is licensed in the EU for the treatment of advanced head and neck cancer. The light can be applied by surface illumination or directl
## Abstract ## Background and Objective Photodynamic tumor therapy (PDT) is based upon a photochemical reaction that is limited by the availability of molecular oxygen in the target tissue. The use of hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) increases the amount of oxygen available for the process may thereby
## Abstract ## Introduction Doppler optical coherence tomography (DOCT) is an emerging imaging modality that provides subsurface microstructural and microvascular tissue images with near histological resolution and sub‐mm/second velocity sensitivity. A key drawback of OCT for some applications is
