BALB/c nude mice bearing WiDr human colon adenocarcinoma were used to determine the effect of ultrasound on the production of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA)-induced protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) both in the tumors and in skin overlying the tumors. Ultrasound (1 MHz) with pulsed irradiation at an average int
