The presented approach constitutes a useful tool to provide realistic estimates of the photothermal effects of PDL treatment of psoriatic plaques (as well as other selective photothermolysis-based treatments), yielding information that is essential in guiding future experimental studies toward unraveling the remedial mechanisms of these treatments.
