Presentation Title: Enhancing Photodynamic Therapy Using Hyperthermia
Abstract: Photodynamic therapy (PDT) and hyperthermia (HT) show promise as minimally invasive cancer therapies, but challenges in generating adequate treatment volumes persist. Given that PDT and photo-induced HT share treatment delivery methods, an opportunity for advancing efficacy exists in their combination. We showcase the benefits of combining PDT and HT through computer simulations, as well as in-vitro and in-vivo models.
