Narrowband UVB Phototherapy
Type:Uv phototherapy Time:2015-12-23 10:04:39
"Narrowband" UVB lamps, on the other hand, emit light over a very short range of wavelengths concentrated in the therapeutic range, and minimally in the sunburning range. UVB Narrowband is therefore theoretically safer and more effective than UVB Broadband, but requires either longer treatment times or equipment with more bulbs to achieve the same dosage threshold. With the goal being to minimize the total cummulative dosage of erythemogenic ultraviolet light in a patient's lifetime, it follows that younger people should consider using UVB Narrowband. Phototherapy equipment sales are now dominated by UVB Narrowband; however, UVB Broadband will likely always have a role. Solarc's UVB Narrowband models have an "UVB-NB" suffix in the model number, such as 1780UVB-NB. Solarc's UVB Broadband models have only a "UVB" suffix, such as 1740UVB.
