Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is a promising modality for inactivation of antibiotic resistant bacteria, relying on the activation of a photosensitizer (PS) by light of a specific wavelength. This process results in the…

Positron Annihilation Lifetime Spectroscopy (PALS) allows examining structure of materials in nano and sub-nanometer scale. This technique is based on the lifetime and intensity of ortho-positronium atoms in free volumes of given…

In living organisms the positron-electron annihilation (occurring during the PET imaging) proceeds in about 30% via creation of a metastable ortho-positronium atom. In the tissue, due to the pick-off and conversion processes, over 98% of…

Positronium imaging was recently proposed to image the properties of positronium atoms in the patient body. Positronium properties depend on the size of intramolecular voids and oxygen concentration; therefore, they deliver information…

A detection system of the conventional PET tomograph is set-up to record data from e+ e- annihilation into two photons with energy of 511 keV, and it gives information on the density distribution of a radiopharmaceutical in the body of the…

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a targeted cancer treatment that uses light-activated photosensitizers to generate reactive oxygen species that selectively destroy tumor cells, generally causing less collateral damage than conventional…

Positron Annihilation Lifetime Spectroscopy (PALS) has shown to be a powerful tool to study the nanostructures of porous materials. Positron Emissions Tomography (PET) are devices allowing imaging of metabolic processes e.g. in human…

Studies based on imaging the annihilation of the electron (e$^{-}$) and its antiparticle positron (e$^{+}$) open up several interesting applications in nuclear medicine and fundamental research. The annihilation process involves both the…

The system of partial differential equations describing tumor-immune dynamics with angiogenesis taken into account is presented. For spatially homogeneous case, the steady state analysis of the model is carried out. The effects of single…

The Jagiellonian Positron Emission Tomograph (J-PET) is the first PET device built from plastic scintillators. It is a multi-purpose detector designed for medical imaging and for studies of properties of positronium atoms in porous matter…

A method is proposed to manipulate the annihilation dynamics of a dense gas of positronium atoms employing superradiance and subradiance regimes of the cooperative spontaneous emission of the system. The annihilation dynamics is controlled…

Positronium-based imaging requires realistic modelling of positronium (Ps) decay in matter. We introduce a modular Ps decay model implemented in GATE 9.4 and GATE 10, enabling the definition of an arbitrary number of decay channels…

Iridium-based photosensitizers have attracted significant attention in photodynamic therapy (PDT) due to their exceptional photophysical properties and chemical stability, as well as tunable phosphorescence emission spectrum and high…

Strong light-matter coupling to form exciton- and vibropolaritons is increasingly touted as a powerful tool to alter the fundamental properties of organic materials. It is proposed that these states and their facile tunability can be used…

The current utmost challenge for commercialization of perovskite solar cells is to ensure long-term operation stability. Here, we developed the pulsatile therapy which can prolong device lifetime by addressing accumulation of both charges…

A fundamental, Quantum Mechanical description of photoactivation of a generic photosensitizer and the ensuing transfer of energy to endogenous oxygen as part of the Type II pathway to photodamage during photodynamic therapy (PDT) is…

One of the features of the triplet state of positronium (ortho-Positronium)atoms is its relatively longer lifetime when compared to the singlet states ofpositronium (para-Positronium) atoms. The most probable decay of ortho-Positronium is…

Cancer is still among the leading health issues today, considering the cost, effectiveness, complexity of detection/treatment modalities and survival rates. One of the most important criteria for higher survival rates is the early and…

The Jagiellonian Positron Emission Tomograph (J-PET) is a detector for medical imaging of the whole human body as well as for physics studies involving detection of electron-positron annihilation into photons. J-PET has high angular and…

Background: Promising results for mammary carcinoma treatment with photodynamic therapy (PDT) presuppose a careful selection of irradiation light wavelength. Methods: 4T1 tumors implanted in NOD-SCID mice were treated with Metvix-PDT under…
