Abstract
The construction and properties of a detector which can be used to measure absolute irradiance from extended UV sources are described. It is shown how the use of this detector coupled with a knowledge of the relative spectral emission from a photochemotherapy unit can lead to accurate estimation of absolute spectral irradiance incident upon a patient's skin.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
