Photodynamic therapy is a method for treating several diseases, most notably cancer. Recent synthetic activity has created a number of phthalocyanines for potential use as photodynamic therapy photosensitizers. In this mini-review article, the background and the concepts in the development of new phthalocyanines are introduced. Copyright (c) 2006 Society of Porphyrins & Phthalocyanines.
