Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Nodular Basal Cell Carcinomas:

Compare the efficacy and safety of conventional versus fractional laser assisted PDT for difficult to treat nodular cell carcinomas in the face.

Actinic keratosis:

Compare the efficacy and safety of conventional versus fractional laser assisted PDT for moderate to severe actinic keratoses located in the face and on the hands.
