Computational Optimization of Irradiance and Fluence for Interstitial Photodynamic Therapy Treatment of Patients with Malignant Central Airway Obstruction

Computational Optimization of Irradiance and Fluence for Interstitial Photodynamic Therapy Treatment of Patients with Malignant Central Airway Obstruction

There are no effective treatments for patients with extrinsic malignant central airway obstruction (MCAO). In a recent clinical study, we demonstrated that interstitial photodynamic therapy (I-PDT) is a safe and potentially effective treatment for patients with extrinsic MCAO. In previous preclinica...
