Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an anticancer therapy, which requires a photosensitizer, preferentially accumulated in the tumor, and light. Historically large, complex lasers have been used to carry out PDT treatment. Nowadays there is wide range of coherent and non-coherent light sources that can be used for this purpose.
