Nanotechnology-Based Drug Delivery Systems for Photodynamic Therapy of Cancer: A Review

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising alternative approach for improved cancer treatment. In PDT, a photosensitizer (PS) is administered that can be activated by light of a specific wavelength, which causes selective damage to the tumor and its surrounding vasculature.
