Abstract
Accurate measurement of photosensitizer concentration in real-time in vivo bladder tissue was beneficial for improving the effectiveness of photodynamic therapy and achieving precise treatment of bladder tumor. In this paper, the potential ability of a transurethral photoacoustic imaging technique in visualizing and monitoring the photosensitizer concentration in the photodynamic therapy of bladder was evaluated. A bladder tissue optical model was established, and 3D Monte Carlo light transport method was coupled to calculate the photoacoustic signal. Photoacoustic signals in different photosensitizer concentrations were recorded. Results illustrated that a clear linearity between the photoacoustic signal intensity and photosensitizer concentration can be observed. It revealed that the proposed transurethral photoacoustic imaging technique has the potential to estimate in vivo photosensitizer concentrations and to guide laser-induced photodynamic therapy of bladder tumor.
