Local monitoring of photosensitizer transient states provides feedback for enhanced efficiency and targeting selectivity in photodynamic therapy

Abstract Photodynamic therapy (PDT) fundamentally relies on local generation of PDT precursor states in added photosensitizers (PS), particularly triplet and photo-radical states. Monitoring these states in situ can provide important feedback but is difficult in practice. The states are strongly inf...
