The Future of Medicine - Photodynamic Therapy and Nano-medicine

from Progress in the World · host PROGRESS IN THE WORLD

Dr. Michael Karlfeldt: Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) Non-toxic dyes known as photosensitizers are administered systemically, locally or intravenously, and accumulate in the tumor or other lesions. Intravenous and interstitial illumination with visible or infra-red laser light excites the sensitizer, which in the presence of oxygen, produces reactive oxygen species that mediate cytotoxic effects. Undesirable cells such as infectious microbial cells or malignant cancer cells can be selectively killed by this approach. Intravenous PDT brings light directly to the bloodstream through optic fibers inserted through a catheter in a vein. This process heightens the body’s immune response. Nanomedicine refers to highly specific medical intervention at the molecular scale for curing disease. Nanomedicine technology inspired by platelet-derived microparticles (PMPs). These membrane fragments, PMPs, shed from activated platelets. There are no detrimental side effects, and the practitioners can use a hyper-targeting system to get medicine exactly where needed. www.thekarlfeldtcenter.com , HealthMade Radio www.healthmade.co, IntegrativeTrueHealthTVShow  www.truehealthshow.com Instagram bio link (canva.com) http://aoscansolex.com/dr-karlfeldt call 2083388902
