Abstract
Human skin temperatures 24 h after irradiation at both 254 and 300 nm were examined using the technique of thermography. Increases in skin temperature were recorded at both wavelengths but the magnitude of these differences after 254 nm irradiation is influenced by the ambient temperature. The apparent disagreement between 2 groups of observers working in the field of UV erythema may well have been explained.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
