✦ Synopsis

Two patients were treated at 20 different tumor sites by hematoporphyrin derivative (HPD) photoradiation therapy (PRT). An infrared detector was used to record changes in surface temperature during laser exposure. A temperature rise of up to 4.9 degrees C was recorded for a total energy of 15-30 J/cm2 and less than 150 mW/cm2. For 508 mW/cm2 and 15-20 J/cm2 a temperature rise of 7.0 degrees C was detected. The results suggest a possible role of hyperthermia in HPD-PRT.

## Abstract Hematoporphyrin derivative‐photoradiation therapy (HPD‐PRT) of human malignancy has been performed on 267 tumor sites in 50 patients. Tumor response has been assayed at 24 hours and one month following treatment with 625–635 nm light from an argon laser‐pumped dye laser. The majority of

Visual function for ten patients undergoing HPD-PRT was tested using 1) the Graham Field Eye Chart for distance vision, 2) pseudo-isochromatic plates for color vision, and 3) Amsler grid for changes in macular function. Whereas some increases and decreases in ocular function were observed, no clear
