Synopsis

Ultraviolet Therapy in Dermatology: History, Devices, and Step‑by‑Step Clinical Techniques for Safe Light‑Based Treatment

This authoritative guide explains how ultraviolet light has been used in dermatology, from early sun exposure to modern lamp technology, and how to apply safe, effective treatments in clinical practice. It combines history, device descriptions, and practical methods to treat a wide range of skin conditions.

The book situates ultraviolet therapy within the evolution of artificial light rays and details the physical, biological, and clinical aspects relevant to dermatology. It emphasizes careful patient reaction, appropriate equipment use, and techniques that balance effectiveness with safety. Readers will find procedural guidance that can inform real‑world treatment planning and execution.

  • Clear explanations of lamp types (such as Kromayer and Alpine Sun Lamp) and their therapeutic roles
  • Step‑by‑step guidance for practical application, including exposure times and distancing
  • Clinical coverage of acne, fungal infections like tinea versicolor, and skin diseases such as lupus vulgaris and tuberculosis cutis
  • Discussion of pre‑ and post‑treatment considerations, including managing reactions and aftercare

Ideal for clinicians seeking disciplined, historically informed approaches to safe ultraviolet therapy in dermatology.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Excerpt from Ultra Violet Rays in Modern Dermatology: Including the Evolution of Artificial Light Rays and Therapeutic Technique

The author will, therefore, give his experience in just that way, having had experience in the treatment of many cutaneous diseases, giving the rays full credit where they have been particularly efficacious, and as well reciting his deductions where the radiations have not been as successful as one might desire.

The author has no intention of being over enthusiastic in his deductions as to the value of ultra violet rays in the practice of dermatology, but will give his unbiased and candid Opinions just as he has been able to deduce them from his own personal experience.
