Photodynamic Therapy

Photodynamic Therapy is a treatment that kills cancer cells with the use of special drugs that are activated by a certain kind of light. Depending on the part of the body being treated, the photosensitizing agent is placed on the skin and absorbed by the cancer cells, then light is applied to the area. The light causes the drug to react with oxygen, which forms a chemical that kills the cells.
