Paper Abstract
A fiberoptic isotropic probe system has been developed to
measure both the Space Irradiance (SI) and Fluorescence (F)
within tissue during Photodynamic Therapy (PDT). The probe
is 0.8mm in diameter. The system has a SI sensitivity of
0.1 mW/cm2 and a F sensitivity of 0.1 microgram per
milliliter of DHE in a tissue phantom solution. It also
provides for the time integrated SI and F and a ratio of the
F to SI. A biological response study is being undertaken
using DHE to determine the correlation of therapeutic
response with drug dose, light dose, integrated space
irradiance, and integrated fluorescence in a standardized
animal tumor model. Description of the device and its
performance will be presented along with preliminary results
of animal tumor model studies.
