Investigating the effects of a temperature dependent photodynamic dose: A numerical study

Significance: Photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) show promise as cancer treatments, but challenges in generating large ablative volumes for deep-seated tumours persist. Using simulations, this study investigates combined PDT and PTT to increase treatment volumes, including the...
