ZusammenfassungDie Phototherapie nutzt die photobiologische Wirkung von ultravioletter (UV‐)Strahlung auf unseren Organismus. Die verschiedenen Wellenlängen der Strahlung rufen dabei ganz unterschiedliche Effekte hervor. Der gezielte Einsatz von UV‐A und UV‐B, gegebenenfalls auch in Kombination mit dem Photosensibilisator Psoralen im Rahmen einer PUVA ...

Phototherapy and photochemotherapy
Clinics in Dermatology, 2008Phototherapy, whose first application for psoriasis dates back to almost a century now, is still an actual mainstay of treatment. We discuss in detail the radiophysical aspects involved in the therapy, the different treatment modalities, and all aspects related to clinical application of phototherapy. By looking at new insights on the molecular mode of

Elderly patients present with a unique spectrum of dermatoses that pose particular management opportunities and challenges, which will be increasingly encountered in dermatological practice. The skin of elderly patients differs from that of younger patients not only in appearance but also in structure, physiology and response to ultraviolet (UV ...

This review illustrates that UVB phototherapy is not only a time-honored treatment, but also highly effective for widespread psoriasis. Treatment parameters include the frequency of irradiation, initial dose based on skin type or MED, increments of UV exposure, and maintenance schedule, according to defined protocols.

JDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, 2010SummaryThe treatment of skin diseases with ultraviolet radiation represents an important therapeutic modality in clinical dermatology, and the number of skin diseases that improve under the phototherapeutic modalities of today is still growing. While clinical phototherapy was originally based on empirical observations, our present understanding of the ...

We describe the first local use of hypericin as photosensitizer for photodynamic therapy in a patient with recurrent malignant mesothelioma. Hypericin is a polycyclic quinone, which has been shown to possess in vivo and in vitro antiretroviral and photosensitizing activity; moreover, it is used in depressive disorders.

AbstractLasers provide a means of delivering high intensity light to small well‐defined areas under precise control. The biological response depends on the light wavelength and intensity and the absorption characteristics of the target organ. The most important effects are thermal and include tissue vaporization, necrosis with later sloughing, and ...

Phototherapy is an effective treatment modality for many types of pruritus. Although the exact mechanisms by which phototherapy reduces itch vary across pruritic conditions, its effects may result from immune suppression and/or neural modulation. In this article, the authors review the efficacy of different types of phototherapy for common inflammatory
