Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy 1st Edition

Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy — 1st Edition

Discover a comprehensive, practical guide to a rapidly evolving approach in infection control. This 1st Edition of Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy brings together contemporary science, clinical evidence, and translational techniques to illuminate how photodynamic therapy (PDT) is reshaping antimicrobial strategies in medicine and dentistry.

Engagingly written for clinicians, researchers, and healthcare policymakers, the book explains core principles—photosensitizers, light sources, dosimetry, and microbial targets—while addressing real-world challenges such as biofilms, antimicrobial resistance, and hospital-acquired infections. Case studies and comparative analyses highlight applications across specialties: dental care, wound management, dermatology, and device-associated infections. Global perspectives underscore relevance for practitioners in North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and beyond, making it a valuable reference for international audiences.

What sets this volume apart is its balance of scientific rigor and clinical practicality. Detailed protocols and outcome metrics help clinicians implement PDT safely and effectively; researchers will appreciate reviews of mechanistic studies, recent trials, and future research directions. Clear figures and stepwise explanations demystify technology choices from continuous-wave LEDs to lasers, ensuring informed decisions for both academic labs and clinical settings.

Whether you are evaluating adjunctive therapies for resistant infections or exploring photodynamic strategies for biofilm disruption, this book equips you with evidence-based insights and actionable knowledge.
