Cancer: Light Enhanced Chemotherapy

This booklet collates information regarding the use of light for cancer therapy. The mechanism of metastasis is also discussed, and the implications of light therapy for potentially reducing the rate of metastasis. The light therapy may therefore have benefits even for cancers deep within the body, and not just for cancers at or near the skin surface. Note: This is NOT Photodynamic Therapy: that is an entirely different approach, and should not be confused with the approach described in this booklet. So far, the very significant improvement of introducing chemotherapy medication into cancerous cells has been demonstrated in vitro, using pulsed red light.
