Resumo
Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a noninvasive, painless, and safe procedure that can be used on a wide range of diseases in clinical practice. Dermatology for dogs and cats is emerging as one of the main areas of interest for the application of this therapeutic approach; however, despite being a promising technique to treat various dermatological diseases, researchers and clinicians have made little use of this powerful tool. The farm animals’ medicine has evolved over the past few years, and the growing demand of consumers looking for absence of residues in animal products becomes essential in the search for alternatives to conventional treatments. Although the bulk of researches on PDT in veterinary medicine are to treat domestic animals, there is a great appeal for its clinical application in exotic, zoo, and wildlife medicine. In this chapter, we describe potential applications of PDT in veterinary clinical practice.
