| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
As a proposal of novel less-invasive therapeutic approach, we conduct the principle study on robotic THz LASER therapy and PDT LASER therapy devices that are expected to use for local tumor target deep inside the patient body.
Concretely, we selected the optical fiber for THz LASER delivery and developed the prototype of orientation positioning device for LASER with rigid- flexible changeable outer-sheath. We also developed the flexible endoscopic device which is capable of observing the target tumor and introducing the PDT Laser simultaneously.
As a results, it was confirmed that the developed devices has applicability toward clinical use.
