Abstract

A photodynamic composition and a method for in vivo photonic treatments that is minimally invasive, versatile and precise are described. The invention allows for photonic treatments with only minimal insertions into the area of treatment, often a single one. The invention may be used with a standard insertion component making the system inexpensive and easy for doctors to use. The invention has applications in several areas of treatment. In vivo treatment of aesthetic skin blemishes such as varicose veins can be performed with minimal external effects. A predetermined amount of a photodynamic composition, as a foam, is injected into the vein or structure of concern. The composition is a sclerosis foam including a photosensitizer. By external compression, where applicable, the photodynamic composition is forced to remain in the vein or structure. After a predetermined time, radiation of appropriate wavelength from a light source is delivered directly to the vascular structure. Among the key benefits of the present invention are the elimination of targeted varicose veins, without need for anesthesia along the length of the vein; no edema; no skin reaction; and tactile appreciation.

INSTRUCTIONS: TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to photodynamic compositions mainly in the field of venography, in particular to photodynamic laser treatment to eliminate varicose veins, reticulated veins and cobwebs. Intravenous, etc., without the need to be anesthetized along the treated vein. [Prior Art] Varicose veins are common symptoms in the world, affecting up to 6%, and older people are 4 inches apart, especially older women, who may be more likely than men to have this problem. The desire to correct venous dilatation has the beauty of both medicine and psychology. Varicose veins can cause pain and discomfort. Sometimes symptoms can cause more: Weight: Health problems. Varicose veins may also present a higher risk of other circulatory diseases. Furthermore, varicose veins on the legs are particularly annoying and prevent many people from publicly exposing these symptoms. Symptoms and signs of varicose veins may include pain or pressure in the legs, as well as burning, palpitations, muscle spasms, and swelling of the lower extremities. Sitting or standing for one time has a tendency to deteriorate the feeling of the legs. This may result in frequent itching around one or more veins; possible skin ulceration near the ankle, which represents a serious form of vascular disease and requires immediate attention. The color of the varicose veins is darker or blue and may appear to be distorted and raised—like a knot in a rope. They usually appear on the dorsal side of the lower limbs or on the inside of the legs. But they can be formed anywhere in the leg, from the groin to the ankle. Spider veins are similar to varicose veins, but they are smaller. The spider web # is found to be close to the skin surface' and the color is usually red or blue 6 200808261 colors. They appear on the legs but can also be found on the face and nose. The size of the spider's veins changes, and usually looks like (four) branches. Other types of varicose veins include; the quiescent lake of the blood pool in the vein, usually found in the face and neck regions. The reticular vein is a flat blue vein below the skin and usually appears behind the knee. Capillary expansion is a subtle cluster of blood vessels similar to a spider vein, colored reddish, and usually found on the face or upper body. Occasionally, veins deep in the legs become enlarged. In such an example, the affected leg may be quite swollen and may or may not be accompanied by pain and red. This is determined to have urgent medical attention 'because it may represent a blood clot - a medically known symptom of a thrombotic vein. Historically, different methods have been developed to deal with this problem, and people spend billions of dollars each year to remove varicose veins. The first treatment to remove varicose veins was sclerotherapy, and in the early twentieth century, surgery was the best way to remove varicose veins. A fairly new development is the Internal Vessel Laser Surgery (ELVeSTM) and is an effective alternative to surgery. In the sclerotherapy, the procedure involves hardening the hardened (four) venous knots (four) within the small or medium veins (four). This method closes the vein and forces the blood to change the route to a healthier vein. The treated varicose veins should gradually disappear within six or seven weeks. Although the same vein may require more than one injection, 'sclerotherapy is usually only effective in the venules if done correctly. In addition, a new and improved type of sclerotherapy treatment called micro-sclerotherapy treatment uses an improved solution and injection technique to increase the power of the removal of the field spider vein into 7 200808261. Sclerotherapy does not require a private, sputum & anesthesia and can be administered at the physician's office, with only local anesthesia in the area being treated. ]r Some procedures for treating varicose veins are as follows: (1) Catheter assisted procedure ·· In the soil containing ^^^^^ In the absolute treatment, the physician inserts the thin tube (guide, :) into the enlarged vein, and Heat the tip of the catheter. The vein is broken as the catheter ^ ^ . . * closes the closure. This procedure is usually performed on larger varicose veins. Other catheter assist methods use a blade to break varicose veins and close. / Use radio waves to turn them off (2) Venous dissection: This procedure involves removing the strip-length vein through two small incisions. The vein is ligated and removed by pulling it out: The method of attack requires general anesthesia and living and will leave a wounded garden. "Long recovery period" and: 3) Walk-on venous resection: The physician removes the smaller varicose veins via a series of tiny skins; in this outpatient procedure, the local anesthesia is used. The scars are generally the smallest. (iv) Venous surgery: This procedure is necessary for theft of leg ulcers. This procedure uses a thin camera to insert the leg to image the vein and close the vein. Only a small incision is required. (5) Laser surgery is used for isolation Smaller varicose veins and spider webs are especially in the upper body and face. In the past, the varicose veins in the legs responded to the laser treatment, especially the larger veins. Whether the surgery really works. However, the new technology of Ray's treatment can use the internal vascular laser system ELVeS, while there are 8 200808261 to effectively treat the varicose veins in the legs. In this procedure, local anesthesia is applied. And inserting optical fibers into the vein. Effective laser radiation, usually 980 nm, 930 nm, or 81 〇nm radiation, applies thermal energy to the vein as the optical fiber is withdrawn, resulting in The vein is closed, and the vein eventually disappears through absorption. Laser treatment under the surface of the skin has also been described in U.S. Patent No. 5,578,029, to Trelles et al., which describes a method whereby an optical probe is inserted into a blood vessel. Abnormally adjacent skin. Introducing a laser pulse will provide venous atrophy and isolation. This method requires multiple insertions along the desired vein to handle the anomaly because the probe is inserted vertically into the venous axis. This procedure has its limitations. First, the method described is particularly for vein treatment, mainly in the leg, and is therefore limited to this particular treatment. Second, the procedure requires a low power beam to illuminate and direct the probe to the treatment site under the skin. The treatment is limited to the area under the depth at which the illumination beam can penetrate. The third '' method indicates that the laser power is transmitted to the vicinity of the vein to be treated and externally. Therefore, for the user, It may be difficult to have all the various sizes of probes on hand to have different requirements; and to get extra additional skirts for them It can be expensive. Secondly, the special probes used for processing are too expensive to be discarded; therefore, they must be sterilized and sharpened after application. This is both time consuming and cumbersome for the user. To ensure that each The probes are properly dissipated, time and effort are necessary; and the sharpening of the # depends on the care and skill of the use: such laser treatment is by indirect vein separation, is an indirect The solution. , , , 9 200808261 This method also requires the device to be inserted into the patient's skin multiple times. Each insertion must be performed so that the probe is placed close to the vein to be treated. The vein segment is isolated, the device is removed, another segment of the vein is reinserted, and the sluggish procedure is repeated. This requirement makes the device more difficult to use. In addition, by introducing multiple skin perforations, the risk of infection increases, just as the skin surface is damaged. Another example of the treatment of varicose veins is illustrated by Del Gigli, U.S. Patent No. 6,200,332. Del Giglio's devices allow for simple, single insertion and specific laser delivery of each processed structure. The needle is inserted into the vascular structure and any abnormalities that begin from the source and continue throughout the structure are eradicated. Third, when coupled with 1-ray imaging, the present invention can be used to treat various internal structures of the body, for example, during surgery. Radiographic imaging allows the user to position the device within the body structure. The laser delivery process can then be administered as described above. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a method and apparatus for safely and efficiently treating subcutaneous hypothyroidism without causing problems associated with prior art and having an effect on the sputum. Furthermore, the present invention is also directed to providing a photosensitizer and a new composition for forming a knife which is particularly suitable for, for example, medical applications for treating abnormalities under the skin. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The goal of the present invention is to meet the needs of effective light processing, which can be used to eradicate vascular abnormalities with greater specificity and efficiency and minimal invasiveness. Another goal of this semester is to provide a venous variceal treatment 10 200808261 method which is more effective for substantially distorted varices adjacent to the saphenous vein and reticulum veins having a diameter of about 2 mm or less. Another object of the present invention is to provide a method of acting with a photodynamic sclerosis composition in a vein. Another object of the present invention is to provide a photosensitizer foam formulation for photodynamic therapy treatment, particularly for treatment of blood vessels and other subcutaneous abnormalities. This is a description of the photodynamic compositions and methods for minimally invasive, versatile and identifiable in vivo light processing. The present invention provides light processing that is only the most v-inserted, typically a single insertion processing region. The present invention can be used with standard plug-in components to make the system cheaper and easier to use. The invention is applicable to many fields of processing. In vivo treatment of dermatophytes such as varicose veins can have minimal external influences. Injecting a quantity of photodynamic composition into the Λ or α composition within the composition of interest is a sclerosis foam containing a photosensitizer: by external compression, if appropriate, forcing the photodynamic composition to be more Only in the evaluation of the pulse or structure. After a predetermined time, the radiation from the source (4) is transmitted directly to the gold tube structure. An important benefit of the present invention is the elimination of a defined venous course r, & Τ + 1 varicose veins without anesthesia along the length of the vein; no edema; no skin reaction; and tactile recognition. The above and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the following description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the drawings, the same reference numerals in the different drawings represent the same items. [Embodiment] 200808261 In particular, many women have, have or will have varicose veins at some point in their lives. It is a kind of cosmetic pathology and has an important general connotation of pathology. In general, this is a problem for most women, and is usually between women up to 4 years of age, especially after the birth of a child; from the perspective of Horqin, the extension is derived from estrogen and progesterone The increase in blood lowering compliance @ 'especially in veins that do not have well defined muscle walls. Under this condition, the vein will have a tendency to enter the sputum with the dilated wall, and the sputum will cause varicose veins. In addition, the enlarged uterus compresses the pelvic veins, reducing the return of good blood and placing additional pressure on the veins of the lower extremities. 14 expansions can also lead to varicose veins. : The varicose veins will cause changes in the aesthetics of the legs, and this will change the human cockroaches... especially women. There are women who have varicose veins in their legs, so they don't go to the beach or wear short skirts. = There is no adequate and reliable solution, and generally only 70, fully satisfactory medical, functional and cosmetic treatments will not be achieved. One object of the invention relating to the treatment of varicose veins is to: (1) provide a method for removing large varicose veins that has previously been hardened to provide for destruction of underlying endothelial cells and muscle layers; and varicose veins. swallow. The arrival of witch cells and polymorphonuclear white blood cells, in order to finally remove ^ (1? "t(T; moporfin} ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ which can be played, 寅怀*nm 'lingual day" will produce intracellular oxidation Role, Bay modified cell membrane properties, cytoplasmic, ribosomal, high-kilth and 12 200808261 cell nucleus role, and finally initiated a series of events that are apoptotic events. When exposed to temoport, the cells begin a series of Morphological changes. The serosa is altered and a characteristic herpes is present. The cell volume is considerably reduced' and the cytoplasm is concentrated. The nucleus becomes smaller, and the chromatin becomes denser, eventually disintegrating and splitting into many tangible spheres. At the end of the death, the cells are ingested by phagocytic cells or adjacent cells by phagocytosis, avoiding the inflammatory reaction in necrosis. Even if the cells disappear, the collagen network is still increased. This improves the support of collagen. Recalibration of collagen fibers and elastin; reduction of gel consistency of basic intercellular substances; improvement of oxygenation and cellular nutrition; and reduction of toxicity Staying and edema of metabolites. Temoporte is a very effective photochemical generator that activates triplet oxygen, which does not require large doses of drugs to kill cells and does not require long-term exposure to light. In the method, activated temopophene produces 1) dioxane oxime oxygenation and increases venous endothelial destruction in the presence of oxygen. This increases venous atrophy and major obstruction; 2) reduces blood due to major obstacles to rapid formation Infection and microclay retention; 3) Fiber, sputum, and weaving are produced in 7 to 丨〇 days to produce a stronger skin structure, so the final sclerosis is not more than 2 days after the treatment ;4) pMN arrives before the body detects varicose veins as foreign objects, and the final fiber elimination is early and complete. The external features make this treatment a rational treatment for the venous varicose veins § patients refused surgery These typically make this treatment option 13 200808261 ideal for large varicose veins. This method is fairly straightforward to implement in practice. The butterfly needle is used for the channelization of varicose veins and slowly introduces the photodynamic composition. After a short time of about 15 minutes into the vein wall, the energy density is about 20-28 joules per square centimeter. Radiation is applied to this region. 0 Figure 1 illustrates the interaction of temotope after activation, resulting in intracellular cell membrane surface and intracellular, granulocyte, high-kilth, endoplasmic reticulum and ribosome changes in the cell. Oxidation, which leads to cell death or apoptosis. 曰Mobote is completely inactive in the dark and is activated by low-intensity light, which is converted into a powerful separation oxygen generator. As seen in the 2A to 2C circle, the sclerotherapy is initiated from the injection of the drug (2A H) 'The drug can transform the wall of the varicose vein into a fiber cord (Fig. 2B). The fiber rope disappeared after about 45 days (Fig. 2C). The hardened foam (SF) is a mixture of a gas having a surface-active property and a liquid solution; the bubble size should preferably be below 丨〇〇 #. The foam does not form an adhesive mass in the vein, which prevents any mixing of the drug with the blood. The photodynamic sclerosis composition/foam (PDSF) increases wall-forming to form a fiber cord due to increased destruction of the varicose inner membrane and back chordae. Using photodynamically sclerosing beads (PDSF), there is complete control of drug concentration in the vein, improved intimal destruction between the hardening agent and the endothelium, and more rapid conversion of varicose veins into fiberoptic cords. And then by the elimination of phagocytosis. β ” 14 200808261 Wide permanent acceleration elimination, the development of medical foam has been started by a (10) (10) in 1993, according to the Department of Blood, the official of the Department of Health, he proposed by polydodecanol (or dodecane The therapeutic foam consisting of poly(ethylene glycol hydroxypolyethoxy oxonate) (POL·) is used for the treatment of varicose veins. This is a real step forward in the treatment of superficial venous insufficiency. In 1997, Shi MGnf reported on the use of glass syringes and sterile embolization to produce weak beads. Patnck Benigni and Sym〇n Sad〇un produce POL beads with disposable syringes and stoppers. In 1999, Ming〇_Garcia reported another technique for the use of milk and specially designed foaming devices. In 2 (8) years, Lorenz. Tessari presents his three-way plug technology, which immediately produces very good blister beds at very low cost. In order to prepare Tessad's beads, a three-way stopcock is required, which is linked to a 25 ml syringe filled with i ml of drug and a 5 ml syringe filled with 4 to 5 strokes of atmospheric air. Perform 2 快速 rapid solution passes. After the first 10 passes, the plug is narrowed as much as possible. This will result in a high quality and highly viscous foam. In the present invention using a photodynamic sclerosis foam, 〇5 to 5% by volume of a small amount of POL and a 50% glucose solution and 50 to 1 ng/ml of temobot (presented in a lipophilic solution) The photosensitizer) is blended. Glucose improves the viscosity of the foam and greatly enhances the formation of activated photosensitizer fibers. Both liposomes and pure temopophen have been prepared in foam compositions/formulations. Previous art indirectly expects that such foams will be difficult to form stably, 200808261 so that photodynamic therapy may be minimal at best. Hardened foam and photodynamically sclerosing blister: Sclerotherapy is the injection of a drug that converts the varicose wall into a fiber cord. The endpoint of the sclerotherapy should be permanent occlusion, but this does not always occur with liquid sclerosing agents. The main cause of inadequate sclerotherapy is represented by the volume of blood that the Chinese medicine will be diluted and the rapidity of its effects. Hardening can only be triggered at the threshold level or if there is a minimum period of time. With a liquid hardener, injections in the venous portion raise the internal drug concentration to the highest point, followed by blood dilution, and a fairly rapid decrease in internal hardener concentration. The shape of the curve is governed by the rate of injection, the ratio of injection volume to vessel size, and blood flow. Only in the presence of drug concentration in telangiectasia, we can expect a straight rise and a fairly long stabilization period, only when the drug appears inside the telangiecton. In large saphenous veins (Gsv) with significant backflow, the highest point will be slower than in the previous example and will be related to the size of the needle and the fluidity of the injected substance. In this vein portion, the maximum concentration of the hardener will be related to the blood (four) product in which the hardener will be diluted. This may explain why sclerotherapy has never been questioned about the efficacy of drugs for telangiectasia, and why saphenous vein sclerosis has always been difficult to achieve. When injected, it forms an adhesive mass inside the vein. This pellet is controlled by a sputum, which has a controlled and consistent nature and can therefore be controlled in situ for a period of time. This will result in optimal sclerosis, and 16 200808261 for the first time will result in controlled sclerosis. The beads are non-equilibrium dispersions of gas bubbles in a relatively small volume of liquid containing interfacial two: 1 丄t surfactant. These preferentially absorb the "a liquid interface and are the result of the stability of the liquid which is converted into a foam". The hardened bead is a mixture of a milk and a liquid solution with a table = Chen Bei, and the bubble size is preferably at 100//m in water, and the sputum is mad- § when injected, the working state of the hardened foam and the liquid The effect of the solution is X η Μ 〃 疋 疋. The active substance POL· and temopophen have more time to contact the endometrial diet jgf main, pulse surface. Not only is the photodynamic effect more intense, but the hydrophobic photosensitizer temopophen can also penetrate deeper after hardening: due to four factors, the final detergent causes the endothelium to be affected by cell surface:: damage. In the exposure of the detergent for 1 second, the endothelium, ... also the knee joint material is disintegrated, causing the skin cells to peel off. "The photosensitizer temopophene benefits from this effect, penetrating the wood layer in the endothelium and placing it in the muscle layer just in close proximity to the vein. When temoport is activated by t-light, it is in oxygen In the presence of the cell, the cell will be broken and the oxygen will be used, and the fibroblast will start immediately, and the truncated and quasi-mother cells can be as internal and differentiated as the inner chemical factor of the fibroblast. The common mistake with blister/end is to treat it as a single entity. In fact, depending on the method chosen, very different foams with different characteristics, complications, and/or sputum indications may be produced. Sorting the bubble by the diameter of the bubble ("+, Q big/package, foam, small foam and micro-foam), or by the liquid phase · I fy 'I shape is the surface tension and interface force The competition is classified as a wet foam (almost spherical bubbles - damp, or liquid volume fraction of more than 5%). The wet foam is shown on circle 3A.

Wet foam has the greatest stability because when the bubble is a polyhedron, such as a dry foam, there is a greater competition between surface tension and interfacial force. Uniform diameter also represents greater stability, as smaller bubbles will flow out into larger bubbles according to Laplace's law, because for cars with smaller diameters, there will be higher Internal pressure. An immediate hardening foam, such as a M〇nfreux foam, usually has a two-stage operation: a state in which it plays a c-foam with polyhedral bubbles very early after production, and then, when the bubbles are dissolved In a relatively wet environment, the foam has a crater that opens to V. More standardized hardened vesicles; at the end (eg, Tessa II eSSan) foams appear to be wet even at the beginning. The stability and consistency of these two tests.

The effects of these foams have been found to be excellent in combination with sensitizers (tenpropophene), which have a long-lasting selectivity and adhesion to the action of the endothelium, and this effect can be Helps temotope penetrate into the vein wall and make it A deeper effect. The action of temopophene also helps to harden the foam. After activation, the destruction of the cells causes the hardened foam to complete the sputum production in a short time and clears the vein clearly. The temopophene solution is in the hardened foam. The stability is predicted to be limited, and thus the excellent activity observed is unexpected for those skilled in the art. Example 1: This 64-year-old male patient has surgically involved two in each leg in the past. Times, and was diagnosed as a varicose vein attached to a perforated perforated vein. The 4_E/(1A to 1B) circle indicates that varicose vein formation can be observed on the surface of the leg below the knee before treatment. They are provided with minimal Nuo = an important manifestation that can be seen. The specific sclerosing foam used in this example is polydodecanol 1% (detergent solution) plus Ji 3G% glucose solution and ^0 ng/ml of temopol The 4-E/(1C to 1D) diagram illustrates the application of a photodynamically sclerosing foam. The butterfly needle is used to introduce photodynamically sclerosing vesicles. In addition, when needed, ultrasonic guidance is used to implant the infusion catheter. Positioning Figure 4_E/(1E and 1F) shows the application of laser radiation (652 nm) for activation of temopophene: the light interval of the drug is 15 minutes, and 19 200808261 The final light energy is about 16 joules/square This dose has been completely accepted without side effects and is sufficient for good handling with this PDF. To determine the activation of temoprebe is to trace the temperature rise in the treated area as shown in the photograph. In these photographs, the 4-E/(1G and 1H) circle 'we can observe the temperature at the start of activation 34·5^, and the temperature after activation at 37 ° C. This temperature follows photodynamic sclerosis The increase in activation 2 · 5 C is an external manifestation of the activation of temopost. In the next photograph, the 4-E/(II to 1J) graph shows a continuous temperature rise of 1 °C after 15 minutes of laser activation. The first heart E/(1K to 1L) country showed progress in the treated area after 7 days of PDS: the varicose veins had disappeared and there was no fiber cord. There is also no blood stasis, hematoma, and pigmentation. Example 2: In the 5_E/(1A and 1B) circle, a 7-year-old elderly woman performed laser internal vascular treatment 15 days ago, but now pDs (photodynamic sclerosis) is applied to the back of the knee: The photodynamic sclerosis foam used was 1.25% polyundecyl alcohol plus Foslip 50 ng/ml. The S-E/ (2C and 2D) circle shows laser activation: energy density at 2 〇 joules per square centimeter. The vein was removed for histological studies. While the above examples use a photosensitizer with the foam to form a pellet to avoid the photodynamic sclerosis composition stream passing through the vein of interest, it is also possible to dispense the foam, but apply a blocking tool to one or more veins to The sensitizer itself is prevented from flowing through the vein until after the treatment is provided. Resistance 20 200808261 A balloon or a previously aborted tool applied by a catheter can be an external compressed constricted vein portion. Not only varicose veins in the legs, but also varicose veins in the esophageal mucosa, it is difficult to treat in the esophageal mucosa, and there is a risk of bleeding between them. There have been treatments for the treatment of sclerosis in the past, but pDs should be more effective and faster, and two indispensable conditions are preferred. Although preferred embodiments of the invention have been described with reference to the drawings, it should be understood It is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments of the invention, and various changes and modifications may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope or spirit of the invention as defined by the appended claims. [Simple description of the diagram] Figure 1 illustrates the process of interaction between temopophen and venous wall cells. Figs. 2A to 2C illustrate how the sclerosis treatment is performed: the hardened product is introduced into the varicose vein by the needle (A); then the fiber cord (B) is produced; and the fiber cord disappears within 45 days (c).
