Photodynamic Diagnosis and Treatment for Atherosclerosis by an Endoscopic Approach

The photosensitizer, mono-L-aspartyl chlorin e6 (NPe6), specifically accumulates in the atheromatous plaque. We detected the fluorescence spectra of NPe6 emitted from atheromatous plaques on the descending thoracic aorta by an angioscopic approach using the animal model of atherosclerosis. We also s...
