Abstract(in English) Recently, Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) using light has been proposed as a cancer treatment method, and it is expected to be a minimally invasive treatment method because it has fewer side effects than conventional treatment methods. However, the applicability of current PDT is limited to cancer types that can be reached by wires, so it is considered difficult to apply PDT to cancer types deep inside the body, such as liver cancer and pancreatic cancer. In this paper, we fabricated a wireless power transfer device that combines a small and lightweight receiving coil and LED for implantation in the body. After that, we experimented to see whether cancer cell death was induced by light irradiation in vitro using power transfer in free-air space. As a result, we succeeded in inducing cancer cell death in about 60% after 120 minutes of light irradiation at a 30 mm transfer distance.
