- Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has received increased attention since the regulatory approvals of several photosensitizers and light applicators in numerous countries and regions around the world. In recent years, much progress has been seen in basic research as well as clinical application. PDT clinical application has now extended from treating malignant diseases to nonmalignant diseases. This review article will present recent clinical data published in English journals. The data will be organized according to their clinical specialties. The new development and future direction in clinical applications of PDT for the management of both malignant and nonmalignant diseases will be discussed.
