5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Guidelines for photodynamic therapy (PDT) of actinic keratosis recommend pretreatment with curettage. The impact of curettage on the treatment effect is, however, not known. The present study aimed to evaluate whether daylight-PDT without curettage would reduce treatment effect compared to daylight-PDT with curettage.
