Comparison of Grenz rays versus placebo in the treatment of chronic hand eczema.

A double-blind trial was performed on 30 patients with bilateral symmetrical constitutional hand eczema, resistant to previous treatment. There was no difference in efficacy between Grenz rays in a total dose of 900 rad (9 Gy) given in three equal doses at 21-day intervals, and placebo therapy given in a similar treatment schedule.
