Abstract
A homogeneous and reproducible fluence delivery rate during clinical photodynamic therapy (PDT) plays a determinant role in preventing under- or overtreatment. PDT in dermatology has been carried out with a variety of light sources delivering a broad range of light doses. Owing to the complexities of the human anatomy, these light sources do not deliver a uniform light distribution to the skin. The development of flexible light sources would considerably improve the homogeneity of light delivery. The integration of plastic optical fibres (POF) into textile structures could offer an interesting alternative.
