    摘要: A photoadjuvant immunotherapeutical method includes the steps of providing a phototherapeutical apparatus, comprising a light source, an optical guidance system, and a patient interface; determining a minimal erythema dose; performing phototherapy by irradiating a target surface with the phototherapeutical apparatus; and performing immunotherapy by exposing the irradiated target surface to an antigen. The method can be applied to treat allergic diseases, including allergic rhinitis, rhinoconjunctivitis, asthma, and atopic dermatitis, as well as to treat autoimmune diseases. UVA, UVB and visible light can be used, emitted from a quartz bulb with a small discharge volume. The phototherapy increases the tolerance of a patient's body toward an antigen. During immunotherapy the irradiated target surface can be exposed to a naturally present antigen or to an administered antigen. The method can be used to treat RSA by preventing rejection of the fotus, or to suppress rejection reactions in organ or cell transplantation.

    摘要: A phototherapeutical apparatus is described, including a light source, generating high intensity visible light, in some embodiments in combination with ultraviolet light, an optical guidance system, and a patient interface. The patient interface can be insertable at least partially into a nasal cavity and is operable to apply the generated light to a tissue surface of the nasal cavity. Applying the apparatus includes providing the phototherapeutical apparatus, preparing for the application of the apparatus, inserting the patient interface into the nasal cavity, and applying the generated light by the patient interface to a tissue surface of the nasal cavity, wherein the tissue of the nasal cavity has an inflammatory or a hyperproliferative disease. The inflammatory diseases include rhinitis, sinusitis, and rhinosinusitis. A photodynamical therapy is also described, applying photosensitizing substances before the treatment with light. The phototherapeutical method is also effective for the prevention of inflammatory or hyperproliferative diseases.

    摘要: A phototherapeutical apparatus and method are described. The apparatus includes an ultraviolet light source, an optical guidance system, and a patient interface. The patient interface is insertable at least partially into a body cavity and is operable to apply the guided ultraviolet light to a tissue surface of a body cavity. The method includes providing the phototherapeutical apparatus, preparing for the application of the phototherapeutical apparatus, inserting the patient interface at least partially into a body cavity, and applying the ultraviolet light by the patient interface to a tissue surface of a body cavity, wherein the tissue of the body cavity has an inflammatory or a hyperproliferative disease. The inflammatory diseases include rhinitis, sinusitis and rhinosinusitis. A photochemotherapeutical method is also described, using photosensitizing substances, such as psoralen before treatment with ultraviolet light. The phototherapeutical method is also effective for the prevention of inflammatory or hyperproliferative diseases.
