Abstract:
1. An irradiation/cooling combination for application in a photodynamic therapy, more particularly an application of a photosensitizer, with an irradiation element with an emission direction for a radiation to be emitted, a cooling element, wherein the latter a first fixing device for defined positioning of the irradiation/cooling combination with respect to the treatment region, wherein the cooling element has at least one lateral region, wherein the latter a filling medium that can be suitably deformed for being precooled, more particularly a liquid or gel-like filling medium, wherein the cooling element is deformable, which can be brought about as a result of being attached to the treatment region, and so this results in homogenization of the radiation within the cooling element by means of a divergence-changing effect on a beam cross section of the emitted radiation.
