  • Title: [The relative radiation intensity on the human skin surface in UV-irradiation cabins].
    Author: Heuss CC, Krause W.
    Journal: Hautarzt; 1985 Mar; 36(3):142-5. PubMed ID: 3997511.
    Abstract:
    Measurements were made of the relative distribution of ultraviolet radiation intensity on the surface of the human body in UV cabins manufactured by Waldmann in the Federal Republic of Germany (UV 1000 and UV 6000). The dosimeter worked on a photoelectric base. It was demonstrated that ultraviolet light energy is quite homogeneous in the trunk but that it decreases in the area of the head and legs. This phenomenon is caused by the non-homogeneous distribution of ultraviolet light as a result of the lamps used in the cabin.
