Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a surface oriented, locally cytotoxic intervention being investigated for oncologic therapy. Surfaces such as the pleura or the peritoneum are frequently involved with primary or metastatic cancer, and the chance for cure in such situations is low due to the inability t

Background and Objectiue: Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a recently developed endoscopic method for treating malignant tumors. For obtaining more photodynamic action with less thermal effect, we employed as the excitation light source for PDT an excimer dye laser, which is a pulsed laser with extreme
## Abstract ## Background and Objective Photodynamic therapy (PDT) using aminolevulinic acid (ALA) has been previously investigated in the treatment of photodamaged skin. The aim was to assess efficacy and tolerability of methylaminolevulinate (MAL) as a substitute for ALA in PDT treatment of acti
