Measure
Conventional Dosing/Plaque Based Dosing
Patients psoriasis to be treated with Excimer laser phototherapy based on conventional dosing guidelines. These guidelines determine the starting dose based on plaque thickness and the skin type of the patient. Patients will also be evaluated for psoriasis plaque response to test doses. The best dose will be selected from a test matrix of doses. Excimer laser phototherapy: Excimer laser phototherapy is a type of ultraviolet light that is applied to psoriatic plaques. It is administered using a laser in a targeted way so that only the plaques are treated (normal skin is not treated).
