Skin examination test medical wood's lamp KN-9000B
Wood’s Lamp is a long-wave ultraviolet light (black light)source that can stimulate fluorescence and is currently used as a screening procedure in dermatology offices across the United States. It was invented by Robert Williams Wood in 1903, but the light was not originally created for dermatology. It wasn’t until 1925 that a Wood’s Lamp had a dermatological application when Margarot and Deveze used the light to detect fungal infections in the hair .Normal skin will not glow under the lamp, but infected skin will fluoresce. Wood’s Lamp is a common, first step method towards diagnosing skin infections in the United States.
The Wood's lmap tet is done to help to detect several conditions affecting the skin, including:
Bacterial infections
Fungal infections
Ectoparasites infestations
Skin coloring changes
.Some skin diseases such as vitiligo, acne and host of other cause the skin to fluoresce
Vitiligo
Bacterial Infections
Acne
Porphyria
Erythasma
Alopecia
Tinea Versicolor
Fungus &Fungal Infections
Head Lice and their nits, Fluoresce under black light
Ringworm
Scabies
Child abuse/bruising can often be discerned with a wood's light
Infection | cause | color |
Tinea (Pityriasis)versicolor | Fungal | Yellowish green or orange |
Erythrasma | Bacterial | Red |
Scabies | Mites | |
Vitiligo | Cell death | White |
Porphyria Cutanea tarda | Genetic or exposure | Red-pink |
Pseudomona infections | Bacterial | Green |
