Photodynamic ablation of high-grade dysplasia and early cancer in Barrett's esophagus by means of 5-aminolevulinic acid

TL;DR: Testing 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA)-induced protoporphyrin IX, a photosensitizer with a high mucosa specificity without phototoxic side effects on the skin, as a new form of PDT found it to offer a minimally invasive treatment modality as an alternative to esophagectomy.

Pharmacokinetics of 5-aminolevulinic acid-induced protoporphyrin IX in skin and blood

TL;DR: The results of this experiments suggest that for a systemic application of 5-ALA side-effects in sensitive patients cannot be excluded, and PPIX levels in the plasma of blood samples could be detected via its fluorescence for all studied routes of application with the exception of the ointment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Investigation on radiofrequency and laser (980 nm) effects after endoluminal treatment of saphenous vein insufficiency in an ex-vivo model.

TL;DR: Results and theoretical considerations indicate that endovenous laser treatment should be modified in order to ensure controlled homogenous circular thermal damage, avoiding vessel wall perforation and damage to perivascular structures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Laser treatment of hyperplastic inferior nasal turbinates: A review

TL;DR: A comparative review of the literature was performed to determine the value of laser treatment of hyperplastic inferior nasal turbinates.
