A photodynamic hyperthermic chemotherapy of cancer comprising topically
injecting a photosensitive dye agent, specifically indocyanine green, in
the form of an acidic liquid formulation to a tumor or cancer tissue, or
a surgically removed site thereof of a patient, and irradiating the
tissue or site with light having such an output wavelength that the
photosensitive dye agent absorbs the light and generates heat; and an
apparatus and a system for photodynamic hyperthermic chemotherapy of
cancer comprising a light source and a probe having a light introducing
portion capable of topically irradiating a tumor or cancer tissue or a
surgically removed site thereof of a patient with light derived from the
light source by a continuous wave or a pulse wave at an output wavelength
of 600 to 1600 nm and an output of 5000 mW or more.
