Present technologies as dedicated light sources, new PSs, and nanotechnology are emerging strategies to promote PDT as a reliable, cost-effective, and safe approach to veterinary medicine. This chapter addresses an overview of emerging clinical applications and recent technologies to encourage veterinarians toward PDT.209-222openAccessveterinary medicinephotodynamic therapyphotosensitivitydiseasestherapeutic usesCapítulo de livro10.1007/978-3-319-45007-0_14https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4203-1134
