✦ Synopsis

A light dosimetry model for photodynamic therapy is described leading to the dependence of necrosis depth on incident light dose. Semiempirical dosimetry relations are derived for four modes of light delivery. Results for PhotofrinB I1 at 630 nm are summarized in graphical form. Numerical values of the parameters and necrosis depth calculations are compared with literature data.

## Abstract Singlet oxygen (^1^O~2~) is the major cytotoxic agent responsible for cell killing for type‐II photodynamic therapy (PDT). An empirical four‐parameter macroscopic model is proposed to calculate the “apparent reacted ^1^O~2~ concentration”, [^1^O~2~]~__rx__~, as a clinical PDT dosimetry

Background. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is being evaluated for treatment of localized head and neck cancer. ''Light dose'' is usually prescribed as incident fluence, which takes no account of reflected and scattered light. This study investigates variations in total tissue fluence for a given inciden
