Although photosensitizer (PS) fluorescence, a widely used parameter, can be viewed as emission from several fluorescent states of the PS (e.g., minimally aggregated and monomeric), we suggest that singlet oxygen luminescence (SOL) indicates only the active PS component responsible for the PDT. Here, the ability of discrete PS fluorescence-based metrics (absolute and percent PS photobleaching and PS re-accumulation post-PDT) to predict the clinical phototoxic response (erythema) resulting from 5-aminolevulinic acid PDT was compared with discrete SOL (DSOL)-based metrics (DSOL counts pre-PDT and change in DSOL counts pre\/post-PDT) in healthy human skin. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analyses demonstrated that absolute fluorescence photobleaching metric (AFPM) exhibited the highest area under the curve (AUC) of all tested parameters, including DSOL based metrics. The combination of dose-metrics did not yield better AUC than AFPM alone. Although sophisticated real-time SOL measurements may improve the clinical utility of SOL-based dosimetry, discrete PS fluorescence-based metrics are easy to implement, and our results suggest that AFPM may sufficiently predict the PDT outcomes and identify treatment nonresponders with high specificity in clinical contexts.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1117\/1.jbo.19.2.028001","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,2,6]],"date-time":"2014-02-06T12:37:55Z","timestamp":1391690275000},"page":"1-13","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":41,"title":["Photosensitizer fluorescence and singlet oxygen luminescence as dosimetric predictors of topical 5-aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy induced clinical erythema"],"prefix":"10.1117","volume":"19","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1547-1764","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Srivalleesha","family":"Mallidi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Wellman Ctr. for Photomedicine"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sriram R.","family":"Anbil","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Massachusetts General Hospital"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Seonkyung","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Physical Sciences Inc."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dieter","family":"Manstein","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Wellman Ctr. for Photomedicine"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stefan A.","family":"Elrington","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Massachusetts General Hospital"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Garuna","family":"Kositratna","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Massachusetts General Hospital"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"David","family":"Schoenfeld","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Massachusetts General Hospital"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9887-670X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Brian W.","family":"Pogue","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Steven J.","family":"Davis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Physical Sciences Inc."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0871-6057","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tayyaba","family":"Hasan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Massachusetts General Hospital"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"189","container-title":["Journal of Biomedical Optics"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.spiedigitallibrary.org\/journals\/journal-of-biomedical-optics\/volume-19\/issue-02\/028001\/Photosensitizer-fluorescence-and-singlet-oxygen-luminescence-as-dosimetric-predictors-of\/10.1117\/1.JBO.19.2.028001.full","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,28]],"date-time":"2026-09-28T18:35:49Z","timestamp":1790620549000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.spiedigitallibrary.org\/journals\/journal-of-biomedical-optics\/volume-19\/issue-02\/028001\/Photosensitizer-fluorescence-and-singlet-oxygen-luminescence-as-dosimetric-predictors-of\/10.1117\/1.JBO.19.2.028001.full"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2014,2,6]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"02"},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1117\/1.jbo.19.2.028001","relation":{},"ISSN":["1083-3668","1560-2281"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1083-3668","type":"print"},{"value":"1560-2281","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2014,2,6]]}}}
