Surface layer-preserving photodynamic therapy (SPPDT) in a subcutaneous mouse model of lung cancer.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:Microwave treatment is an effective non-invasive treatment option for primary axillary hyperhidrosis (PAH), but the treatment parameters vary and no histopathological studies have been performed to validate clinical outcomes. This study investigated its efficacy and safety and histopathologica...
