Özet

Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) has been used in various fields especially in cancer treatment. In PDT, designing a light source has vital importance in order to achieve a successful treatment. Among the light sources, Lasers are important candidates for their precise wavelengths to activate the photosensitizers (PS), coherent nature and fiber-coupled usage. In order to achieve perfect PDT treatment, the Laser light sources needs to be embedded with high stability current, temperature controllers and closed loop control systems.
