Wood's lamp illuminator fluorescent diagnostic NEXT
DESCRIPTION
Wood's lamp is a fluorescent diagnostic lamp, the principle of operation of which is based on the emission of light in a narrow long-wavelength spectrum of the ultraviolet range and gives almost no visible light. It is often referred to as a black light lamp. Working wavelength 365 nm.
In medicine, a Wood's lamp is a device designed to diagnose skin conditions, including mycoses - fungal diseases and some types of dermatoses. Wood's lamp is used in cosmetology clinics, skin dispensaries, in children's institutions for preventive examinations.
