The objective of this study was to evaluate the enhancement of PDT efficiency by using a liposome drug delivery system with different drug concentrations in contrast to treatment excluding the use of the drug delivery system on a colon cancer cell line.enPhotodynamic therapyPhotosensitizerLaserLiposome delivery systemCancerdrug delivery systemLiposomes as a drug delivery system in photodynamic therapy for colon cancer treatmentArticleMaduray, K., & Karsten, A.
