‘Photodynamic therapy light’: An enhanced treatment protocol for actinic keratoses with minimal pain and optimal clinical outcome by combining laser-assisted low irradiance PDT with shortened daylight PDT by Martin T. Braun, Kelly Del Tredici, Anna Wölling, Luitgard Wiest

“…Results: Between March and November 2019, we successfully treated 152 cases using the enhanced ‘PDT light’ procedure, with 137 cases achieving at follow-up 1 (on average after 8.14 months) good-to-excellent clearance rates (CLA and CLB together 90 %) and minimal adverse effects. Conclusions: The novel ‘PDT light’ protocol proved to be an excellent and nearly painless method with an average visual-analogue scale (VAS) score of 1.19. …”
