Abstract

Despite the growing interest in photodynamic therapy (PDT) and the granting of regulatory approvals for many photosensitivity drugs and light applicators worldwide, there are many endeavors involving the search for a new physical mechanism that underpins PDT to influence various biological processes that are necessary for and contribute to In healing processes and in reducing pain, inflammation and other forms of damage. Electromagnetic and magnetic fields appear to be unique in their safety during clinical use. This review will focus on new clinical research advancements and will explore the value of incorporating external magnetic and electromagnetic fields for PDT technologies for the treatment of malignant and non-malignant disorders.
