Timeline
Interventions
Daavlin 7 series 3 panel narrow band phototherapy home units (with 8-12 bulbs and a smaller, flat surface with door, measuring 21" wide, 74.5" tall, and 23.5"). This unit is a class II device with a FDA 510K indication for psoriasis, vitiligo and atopic dermatitis/eczema. The unit will have a dosimetry controller, a UV sensor built in that measures the intensity of the light. This sensor will adjust the treatment time to compensate for any variation in output due to aging of the lamps or other factors
