Apparatus for the photodynamic treatment of living beings or organs thereof

A device for the photodynamic treatment of living beings and of organs thereof respectively, comprising:

• a light source being controllable with regard to its intensity, time, wavelength and spectral bands respectively;
• a switching device;
• a power source;
• and
• means for detecting the reaction of the treated living being and the organs thereof respectively;
• wherein for adapting the device for use for an adaptive treatment tailored to the treated patient by data signaled back, which treatment is based on cooperating with biophotochemical effects initiating colors and on tissue-photons-interactions, a computer (14) is provided having an expert data bank (16) and a working data bank (43) as well as a comparator (44), said computer (14) is connected to the light source (12) and to sensors (38) for detecting the reaction of the cancerous cells of the treated living being or tissue or organ respectively suffering under cancer by detecting data of the cancerous cells showing their reaction, said data being selected from the group of oxygen concentration, tissue impedance, volume, blood circulation, NADH and MPA-concentration or temperature respectively;
• and wherein by an adaptive control system (45) and by the comparator (44) under comparing the sensor data with the data stored in the expert data bank the found compared data are evaluated and whereafter the computer (14) controls the light source (12) in dependence on the evaluation of the compared data.
