Proton-dynamic therapy following photosensitiser activation by accelerated protons demonstrated through fluorescence and singlet oxygen production
The authors use accelerated protons on photosensitizers (PS, conventionally excited by light), to generate fluorescence and singlet oxygen which can enhance the efficacy of proton therapy. A pilot study on glioblastoma cells confirms differential cell death upon irradiation in the presence of PS.
