The traditional surgical method for cancer treatment has not been successful in removing primary or metastatic tumors. Chemotherapy and radiation therapy methods, as well as cancer cells and healthy cells affect the process of treatment nausea, hair loss, immune system weakness, such as there are many side effects. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a regulator for the treatment of many malignant carcinomas that can cause immunogenic apoptosis.
