Abstract

Objective: 5-Aminolevulinic acid-mediated photodynamic therapy (ALA/PDT) can improve clinical outcome in patients suffering from glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). Due to the limited penetration of the laser light into brain tissue, however, additional mechanisms besides direct phototoxicity have to[for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
