癌症治疗，尤其是敏感区域附近的肿瘤，需要精准治疗。本综述探讨了光动力疗法 (PDT)，这是一种利用光敏剂 (PS)、特定波长的光和氧气来有效靶向癌症的方法。最近的进展证实了 PDT 的功效，即利用 ROS 的产生来诱导癌细胞死亡。 PDT 的历史已有数十年，其动态演变已将其应用扩展到皮肤科、肿瘤学和牙科。本综述旨在剖析 PDT 从其诞生到当代医学应用的原理，强调其在现代癌症治疗策略中的作用。版权所有 © 2024 Aebisher、Rogóż、Myśliwiec、Dynarowicz、Wiench、Cieślar、Kawczyk-Krupka 和 Bartusik-Aebisher。

Cancer therapy, especially for tumors near sensitive areas, demands precise treatment. This review explores photodynamic therapy (PDT), a method leveraging photosensitizers (PS), specific wavelength light, and oxygen to target cancer effectively. Recent advancements affirm PDT's efficacy, utilizing ROS generation to induce cancer cell death. With a history spanning over decades, PDT's dynamic evolution has expanded its application across dermatology, oncology, and dentistry. This review aims to dissect PDT's principles, from its inception to contemporary medical applications, highlighting its role in modern cancer treatment strategies.Copyright © 2024 Aebisher, Rogóż, Myśliwiec, Dynarowicz, Wiench, Cieślar, Kawczyk-Krupka and Bartusik-Aebisher.
