Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a novel treatment modality that produces local tissue necrosis with laser light after prior administration of a photosensitizing agent. We performed a study of topically applied 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) in the photodynamic treatment of women with high-grade cervica
