The UVB Narrowband (/01) low-pressure fluorescent Phototherapy lamps are effective lamps for the treatment of Psoriasis. Philips introduced the very first UVB lamps and they’ve continued to develop and improve them for the last 20 years. Their application laboratory carries out research in close cooperation with universities all over the world.

Applications

• Psoriasis
• Parapsoriasis
• Vitiligo
• Atopic Dermatitis
• Mycosis fungoides
• Other skin diseases

By emitting light almost entirely within the 400 to 500 nm bandwidth these Medical Therapy Jaundice /52 lamps have no radiation in the UV range. They are therefore ideal for treating new born babies suffering from hyperbilirubinemia (neonatal jaundice) and Crigler-Najjar Syndrome (CNS). Moreover, the bandwidth of these lamps peak at the most effective treatment wavelength of 450 nm. This highly efficacious phototherapy treatment has eliminated the need for blood transfusions in almost all jaundiced infants.

Applications

• Medical treatment of jaundice in new-born babies
• Criglar - Najjar (CN) syndrome

Some patients do not respond to UVB treatment. In these cases a UV lamp with an ‘A’ bandwidth of the UV spectrum is used. This (PUVA) lamp has a wavelength of 315 to 380 nm and is in addition to the treatment of psoriasis also commonly used for more than 20 other diseases. Philips offers UVA lamps in TL, PLS and PLL versions.
