Endoscopic filter fluorometer for detection of accumulation of Protoporphyrin IX to improve photodynamic diagnostic (PDD)
Photodynamic diagnostic (PDD) is an optical enhancement option for the endoscope to support the detection of cancer, for example in the bladder. In real application PDD efficiency suffers due to the complex accumulation of the photosensitizing drug inside the tumor and the associated processes of he...
