UV radiometry in dermatology.

View original source ↗Export metadata ↓

Abstract

UV radiometry in photodermatology remains in an unsatisfactory state, which has been highlighted and, in some respects, worsened by improvements in UV detector technology. Complex, fundamental problems are involved, but matters have not been helped by a failure to recognize the clear distinction between those UV measurements which aim at accurate radiometry, and those which aim only at long-term consistency in a particular irradiation technique within a department.

[In memory of our Jewish colleagues who were murdered or committed suicide during the National Socialist Era].

With this article, we commemorate our Jewish colleagues who were murdered or committed suicide during the National Socialist Era in 1933-1945. Additionally, this article should provide an impulse to create a worthy memorial place. We thereby propose to put up commemorative plaques, e.g. in front of the administrative office of the German Dermatologic Society. Fifty-six Jewish dermatologists were killed in concentration camps in the National Socialist Era; 23 died in Theresienstadt, 19 in Auschwitz, and 14 in other concentration or extermination camps. Thirteen Jewish dermatologists committed suicide.
