Treatment of near-infrared photodynamic therapy using a liposomally formulated indocyanine green derivative for squamous cell carcinoma.

Treatment of near-infrared photodynamic therapy using a liposomally formulated indocyanine green derivative for squamous cell carcinoma.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a less invasive option for cancer treatment that has evolved through recent developments in nanotechnology. We have designed and synthesized a novel liposome system that includes an indocyanine green (ICG) derivative, ICG-C18, in its bilayer. In addition to its use as a...
