Photomedicine and Stem Cells - The Janus Face of Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) to Kill Cancer Stem Cells, and Photobiomodulation (PBM) to Stimulate Normal Stem Cells (Paperback)

Janus, the ancient Roman god depicted with two faces is an appropriate metaphor for light therapy. In the right photodynamic therapy conditions, light is able to kill nearly anything that is living such as cancers, microorganisms, parasites, and more. On the opposite face, light of the correct wavelength and proper dose (photobiomodulation) can heal, regenerate, protect, revitalize and restore any kind of dead, damaged, stressed, dying, degenerating cells, tissue, or organ system. This book discusses both sides of Janus' face in regards to light therapy.
