Description and Table of Contents

Description

A concise introduction to the medical uses and biological effects of ultraviolet radiation (UVR) emphasising the practical nature of the subject. The text explains the physical principles of UVR production and dosimetry and should be particularly useful as a handbook of measurement techniques. Intended primarily for medical physicists, but should also be of interest to dermatologists, physiotherapists, photobiologists, biophysicists and to some workers in cosmetics industry.

Table of Contents
