LED Photodynamic Therapy Research
LED Photodynamic therapy research has been applied to activating cancer drugs once they have been pinpointed inside a tumor. An emerging cancer treatment, PDT uses high-intensity, monochromatic light to turn on the cancer-killing properties of a drug, allowing physicians to activate a drug in the tumor only. This keeps the healthy areas around the tumor from being negatively impacted.
