Photodynamic therapy of cancerous tumorous of various human organs uses both coherent and noncoherent light sources for the treatment. However, noncoherent ones are prefered due to higher treatment efficiency, simpler and reliable operation and lower financial costs. Main purpose of this report is to give overview of basic optical methods and instruments used in the photodynamic therapy.
