Narrowband ultraviolet B in the treatment of psoriasis: the journey so far!

Sunil Dogra1, Dipankar De.   

Abstract

Ever since artificial TL-01 lamps were developed, narrowband ultraviolet B (NBUVB) has gained giant strides in dermatology. Psoriasis is one of the common indications for the use of NBUVB in present day dermatology. We discuss here the evolution of NBUVB, its mechanism of action pertaining to psoriasis, indications and contraindications, dosimetry, complications of NBUVB while being used in patients with psoriasis, its merits and demerits in comparison with broadband UVB and psoralen+UVA (PUVA), and recent developments in the delivery system of NBUVB.
