    Journal: G Ital Dermatol Venereol; 2009 Aug; 144(4):433-9. PubMed ID: 19755946.
    Abstract:
    The aim of this review was to describe briefly the mechanism and history of photodynamic therapy (PDT). The achieved preclinical and clinical results in Rotterdam are discussed in the light of a search to optimize aminolevulinic acid-photodynamic therapy (ALA-PDT). As the incidence of skin cancer is rising, an optimized treatment in non-melanoma skin cancer is needed.
