Phototherapy of Brain Tumours Using a Fibre Optic Neurosystem

In this work, a new approach was tested to assess the cellular composition of tissues by time-resolved methods of fluorescence analysis of exogenous and endogenous fluorophores. First of all, the differences in fluorescence kinetics of endogenous fluorophores (coenzymes NADH and FAD) in tumour and i...
