  • Title: The use of a simulated body shape for determination of patient dosimetry within whole body ultraviolet treatment cabinets.
    Author: Clarkson DM, Franks L.
    Journal: Phys Med Biol; 2006 Feb 21; 51(4):N51-8. PubMed ID: 16467574.
    Abstract:
    Details are described of a simulated body shape utilized to determine patient dosimetry within whole body ultraviolet treatment cabinets. The body shape was designed to have a shape characteristic of the patient group undergoing treatment and was utilized in several Waldmann whole body treatment cabinets and with irradiance measurements undertaken using a Bentham DM150C spectroradiometer. It was considered that the rigid defined structure of the body shape allowed satisfactory reproducibility of measurements in such cabinets and also allowed additional parameters to be identified for evaluation of performance of such units.
