  • Abstract
    Over the past several years, photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been approved for the treatment of various cancers. Additional applications of photochemical processes for triggering site-specific drug delivery are in early stages of development at this time. This review focuses on the literature appearing between January 1996–June 2001 that describe new and ongoing studies of phototriggering mechanisms that may ultimately find utility in drug delivery applications.
