Abstract
Herein, the optical adequacy of a tumor model prepared with tumor cells grown on the chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) of a chicken egg is evaluated as an alternative to the mouse tumor model to assess the optimal irradiation conditions in photodynamic therapy (PDT). The optical properties of CAM and mouse tumor tissues were measured with a double integrating sphere and the inverse Monte Carlo technique in the 350- to 1000-nm wavelength range. The hemoglobin and water absorption bands observed in the CAM tumor tissue (10 eggs and 10 tumors) are equal to that of the mouse tumor tissue (8 animals and 8 tumors). The optical intersubject variability of the CAM tumor tissues meets or exceeds that of the mouse tumor tissues, and the reduced scattering coefficient spectra of CAM tumor tissues can be equated with those of mouse tumor tissues. These results confirm that the CAM tumor model is a viable alternative to the mouse tumor model, especially for deriving optimal irradiation conditions in PDT.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising treatment for cancer that has been recently accepted in the clinic. In this study, we examined a biological significance of PDT with a chlorin-based photosensitizer, Photodithazine, on cervical cancer model. When human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16)- transformed mouse TC-1 cells were exposed to varied doses of Photodithazine with light irradiation (6.25 J/cm2), the significant growth inhibition of TC-1 cells was observed at 0.75 μg/mL of Photodithazine. The damaged cells by Photodithazine/PDT were categorized to be early and late apoptosis, as determined by annexin V staining. Photodithazine was primarily localized at lysosome apparatus within TC-1 cells while it was rapidly accumulated and sustained for initial 3 h in tumor tissue of TC-1 tumor bearing mice after IV injection. The tumor growth inhibition by Photodithazine/PDT with light irradiation (300 J/cm2) was examined after injection of various concentration of Photodithazine in tumor mice system. Our results show that Photodithazine/PDT might have significant advantages in the selective killing of tumor lesions in HPV 16 E6/E7 associated cervical cancer model, both in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is reviewed using the treatment of skin tumors as an example of superficial lesions and prostate cancer as an example of deep-lying lesions requiring interstitial intervention. These two applications are among the most commonly studied in oncological PDT, and illustrate well the different challenges facing the two modalities of PDT-superficial and interstitial. They thus serve as good examples to illustrate the entire field of PDT in oncology. PDT is discussed based on the Lund University group's over 20 yr of experience in the field. In particular, the interplay between optical diagnostics and dosimetry and the delivery of the therapeutic light dose are highlighted. An interactive multiple-fiber interstitial procedure to deliver the required therapeutic dose based on the assessment of light fluence rate and sensitizer concentration and oxygen level throughout the tumor is presented.

Abstract
Light based therapies such as photodynamic therapy are in need of advanced tools for light fluence rate dosimetry and monitoring within the context of therapy planning and light delivery to ensure maximum treatment efficacy. The use of a single, multisensor fiber-based fluorescent probe capable of performing spatially resolved fluence rate measurements along an axis was demonstrated. This work extends the previous technique and describes a fluence rate quantification system able to employ up to 12 multisensor probes to simultaneously measure fluence rate distribution throughout a 3D treatment volume. The system optoelectronics provides for sensor calibration, data acquisition, and weighted least-squares processing to extract localized fluence rate information in real-time. Core components include an integrating cylinder for source sensor calibration, a 2D back thin CCD detector for sensor signal detection from multiple probes, high-speed data acquisition card, and custom software for real-time extraction of fluence rate information from all sensors.

Abstract
Singlet oxygen ((1)O(2)) is an important factor mediating cell killing in photodynamic therapy (PDT). We previously reported that chemiluminescence (CL) can be used to detect (1)O(2) production in PDT and linked the signal to the PDT-induced cytotoxicity in vitro. We develop a new CL detection apparatus to achieve in vivo measurements. The system utilizes a time-delayed CL signal to overcome the interference from scattered excitation light, thus greatly improving the accuracy of the detection. The system is tested on healthy skin of BALB/ca mouse for its feasibility and reliability. The CL measurement is made during a synchronized gating period of the irradiation light. After each PDT treatment and in situ CL measurement, the skin response is scored over a period of 2 weeks. A remarkable relationship is observed between the score and the CL, regardless of the PDT treatment protocol. Although there are many issues yet to be addressed, our results clearly demonstrate the feasibility of CL measurement during PDT and its potential for in vivo PDT dosimetry. This requires further investigations.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION High-field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an emerging technique that provides a powerful, non-invasive tool for in vivo studies of cancer therapy in animal models. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a relatively new treatment modality for prostate cancer, the second leading cause of cancer mortality in American males. The goal of this study was to evaluate the response of human prostate tumor cells growing as xenografts in athymic nude mice to Pc 4-sensitized PDT. MATERIALS AND METHODS PC-3, a cell line derived from a human prostate malignant tumor, was injected intradermally on the back flanks of athymic nude mice. Two tumors were initiated on each mouse. One was treated and the other served as the control. A second-generation photosensitizing drug Pc 4 (0.6 mg/kg body weight) was delivered to each animal by tail vein injection 48 hours before laser illumination (672 nm, 100 mW/cm(2), 150 J/cm(2)). A dedicated high-field (9.4 T) small-animal MR scanner was used for image acquisitions. A multi-slice multi-echo (MSME) technique, permitting noninvasive in vivo assessment of potential therapeutic effects, was used to measure the T2 values and tumor volumes. Animals were scanned immediately before and after PDT and 24 hours after PDT. T2 values were computed and analyzed for the tumor regions. RESULTS For the treated tumors, the T2 values significantly increased (P<0.002) 24 hours after PDT (68.2+/- 8.5 milliseconds), compared to the pre-PDT values (55.8+/-6.6 milliseconds). For the control tumors, there was no significant difference (P = 0.53) between the pre-PDT (52.5+/-6.1 milliseconds) and 24-hour post-PDT (54.3+/-6.4 milliseconds) values. Histologic analysis showed that PDT-treated tumors demonstrated necrosis and inflammation that was not seen in the control. DISCUSSION Changes in tumor T2 values measured by multi-slice multi-echo MR imaging provide an assay that could be useful for clinical monitoring of photodynamic therapy of prostate tumors.

Abstract
Interstitial quantification of the optical properties of tissue is important in biomedicine for both treatment planning of minimally invasive laser therapies and optical spectroscopic characterization of tissues, for example, prostate cancer. In a previous study, we analyzed a method first demonstrated by Dickey et al., [Phys. Med. Biol. 46, 2359 (2001)] to utilize relative interstitial steady-state radiance measurements for recovering the optical properties of turbid media. The uniqueness of point radiance measurements were demonstrated in a forward sense, and strategies were suggested for improving performance under noisy experimental conditions. In this work, we test our previous conclusions by fitting the P3 approximation for radiance to Monte Carlo predictions and experimental data in tissue-simulating phantoms. Fits are performed at: 1. a single sensor position (0.5 or 1 cm), 2. two sensor positions (0.5 and 1 cm), and 3. a single sensor position (0.5 or 1 cm) with input knowledge of the sample's effective attenuation coefficient. The results demonstrate that single sensor radiance measurements can be used to retrieve optical properties to within approximately 20%, provided the transport albedo is greater than approximately 0.9. Furthermore, compared to the single sensor fits, employing radiance data at two sensor positions did not significantly improve the accuracy of recovered optical properties. However, with knowledge of the effective attenuation coefficient of the medium, optical properties can be retrieved experimentally to within approximately 10% for an albedo greater or equal to 0.5.

Abstract
The development of photodynamic therapy into a modality for treatment of prostate cancer calls for reliable optical dosimetry. We employ, for the first time, interstitial time-resolved spectroscopy to determine in vivo optical properties of human prostate tissue. Nine patients are included in the study, and measurements are conducted prior to primary brachytherapy treatment of prostate cancer. Intrasubject variability is examined by measuring across three tissue volumes within each prostate. The time-resolved instrumentation proves its usefulness by producing good signal levels in all measurements. We are able to present consistent values on reduced scattering coefficients (mu(s)'), absorption coefficients (mu(a)), and effective attenuation (mu(eff)) at the wavelengths 660, 786, and 916 nm. At 660 nm, mu(s)' is found to be 9+/-2 cm(-1), and mu(a) is 0.5+/-0.1 cm(-1). Derived values of mu(eff) are in the range of 3 to 4 cm(-1) at 660 nm, a result in good agreement with previously published steady state data. Total hemoglobin concentration (THC) and oxygen saturation are spectroscopically determined using derived absorption coefficients. Derived THC values are fairly variable (215+/-65 microM), while derived values of oxygen saturation are gathered around 75% (76+/-4%). Intrasubject variations in derived parameters correlate (qualitatively) with the heterogeneity exhibited in acquired ultrasound images.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the use of photodynamic therapy (PDT) as a minimally invasive form of treatment for organ-confined prostate cancer, for although there are several therapies, ablative treatments are associated with significant morbidity. MATERIALS AND METHODS Using the photosensitizer tin etiopurpurin, dogs were treated with interstitially placed laser fibres in an effort to validate PDT for treating prostate cancer. Earlier models assumed a uniform distribution of light output from a cylindrical fibre and a uniform attenuation coefficient throughout the prostate. Subsequent observations show that this model was too simple and that light radiance is not linear. To overcome under-treatment, a computer program to complement real-time fibre placement was developed. RESULTS As light radiance from interstitially placed laser fibres varies significantly from the commonly assumed ideal cylindrical emission, a predictive mathematical model of prostate PDT needs to consider the real emission. Also, the optical properties of the prostate, e.g. absorption and scattering of light, are anisotropic. Differences in the attenuation coefficient (combining absorption and scattering of light) also varied among different animals. Incorporating all these variables into a computer program produced a virtual model of the photo-ablated zone within +/- 2 mm of that observed in animals. CONCLUSION PDT of the prostate is not trivial and should benefit from computer-aided methods as it is developed for clinical use.
