Abstract

Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) is a promising method for treating oral cancer using photosensitizers in conjunction with a moderately powered red light. As oral cancer tends to be more prevalent in rural and remote areas of the developing world, a portable treatment device with a robust power system is needed to properly service such areas. The device should operate without stable or guaranteed power infrastructure. This paper describes the electronic circuit design of an updated PDT medical device centered around a laser, rather than a light-emitting diode used in previous prototypes. The system features a microcontroller interfaced with a current driver, touch screen, safety interlocks, power switchover board, and battery. Users will be able to control, administer, and maintain treatment even in the event of a power outage, or while operating in the field. The system was tested, and the results show that power to the laser is stable through power switchover.
