Abstract
A new laser medical system (LMS) “LITT-FDT” for treating oncological diseases is presented. The laser system is based on a dye laser pumped by a copper vapor laser. The system features gradual wavelength tuning which allows operation almost with any photosensitizer (PS) when treating oncological diseases by the photodynamic therapy (PDT) method. The results of clinical trials of skin cancer treatment by the PDT method using the “LITT-FDT” laser system are considered.
