Optimized Cylindrical Diffuser Powers for Interstitial PDT Breast Cancer Treatment Planning: A Simulation Study
Purpose. It is well known that interstitial photodynamic therapy (iPDT) of large tumors requires effective planning to ensure efficient delivery of therapeutic dose to the target tumors. This should be achieved in parallel with minimal damage to the nearby intact tissues. To that end, clinical iPDT...
