Adverse Responses to Electromagnetic Radiation
- UV radiation exposure is erythema (redness).
- varies greatly rom person to person.
- Vasodilation responsible or the color change.
- most effective solar band to cause erythema
- UV-B (290 to 320 nm).
Photosensitivity
- Various genetic diseases, such as xeroderma pigmentosum
- “constitutional” sensitivity to light can be precipitated
- “acquired” sensitivity in general by hexachlorobenzene
- Phototoxicity produced by systemic or topical administration
