Health benifits of different light wavelength and associated photosensitizers used for PDT plus

Infrared 810nm indocyanine green

·Photodynamic and photothermal effect

·Treats metastatic lesions in deep tissues as well as in bones

·Used for cancer cell imaging, as well as circulating tumor cell detection

Red 658nm Chlorin E6

·Improves blood flow and blood cell characteristic

·Actives macrophages

·Improves proliferation of lymphocytes (B- and T-cell)
