Abstract:
Each patient responds uniquely to phototherapy treatment. Not every patient can tolerate daily treatment. Different areas of the body require different amounts of light in order to clear. Precise documentation of erythema is important for both treatment and legal reasons. A negative response to UVB therapy can be from either ineffective treatment or an adverse reaction to UVB.
