photodynamic diagnosis (pdd)

What Types of Cancer Can Be Diagnosed with PDD?

PDD is particularly effective in diagnosing cancers that are difficult to detect using conventional imaging techniques. It is commonly used for:
- Bladder Cancer: PDD can improve the detection of bladder tumors, especially non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.
- Brain Tumors: Intraoperative PDD helps neurosurgeons distinguish between tumor tissue and normal brain tissue during surgery.
- Skin Cancer: PDD assists in identifying superficial skin cancers such as basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma.
