  • 本研究主要應用非侵入式測量儀器,探討與分析紫外線B照射後表皮反應相關參數,其中所使用之儀器有表皮水分蒸發率測定儀與電容測定儀提供客觀的量化皮膚反應;共軛焦雷射掃描式顯微鏡提供即時各層皮膚的光學切面組織變化;雷射都卜勒灌流影像儀器以監測表層血流;色素測量儀(包含測色儀CR400可紀錄L*、a*、b*值變化,以及黑色素測量儀和血色素測量儀)紀錄表皮色素變化。本實驗共有邀請二十名健康自願者,在其手臂屈側的兩個部位,直徑各為二十公厘,分別照射紫外線B劑量 100 mj/cm2與200 mj/cm2;在照射前及二十四小時後,使用上述儀器紀錄表皮變化;從實驗結果顯示,色素測量儀及視覺評估對於紫外線照射前後有較佳的鑑別度,其中a*值與血紅素指數和視覺評估的均呈正線性相關(a*值較EI指數佳),測色儀a*值可以提供可靠資訊,因此使用a*與視覺評估建立數學模式,用以預測最小致紅劑量。比較分析實驗數據發現,數學預測模式比目測值少10 mj/cm2,不過仍有不錯的相關係數(P=0.758)。總結,本研究以a*為基礎建立客觀數學模型以量化紫外線B最小致紅劑量,未來將可使照光治療流程更為精準,增加治療療效與降低治療風險。

    This study is to investigate and analyze the associated parameters for skin reaction after ultraviolet B (UVB) irradiation using non-invasive measuring devices. The device of transepidermal water loss and capacitance measurement is used to quantitatively characterize the skin response. A confocal laser scanning microscopy is employed to in-vivo analyze the tissue changes for the optical section of skin in real time. The laser Doppler perfusion imager is used to monitor the blood perfusion of skin. The colorimetric measurement (Chromameter a*, b*, and L* values; Mexameter Hb for determining the skin surface melanin index and erythema index) are also be employed for recording the changes of skin color. In this study, 20 healthy Chinese volunteers are recruited. 2 sites with 20 mm in diameter of the volar forearms are irradiated with UVB dosages of 100 mj/cm2 and 200 mj/cm2, respectively. The skin before and immediately after UVB irradiation, and 24 hours after UVB irradiation are characterized using the above mention devices. From the experimental results, it is shown that the colorimeric measurement and visual scoring (VS) provide better discrimination over UVB irradiation dosages. Both a* (A) and erythema index (EI) show very good positive linear relation to VS. (a* is better than EI.) The a* value provides more reliable information and is used to obtain a mathematical model in predicting the minimal erythema dose (MED). Comparing the experimental data, it is found that the predicted value is lower than the visual scoring by 10 mj/cm2. However, the correlation of MED values obtained using the visual assessment and mathematical prediction is fairly high (Pearson correlation coefficient = 0.758). In conclusion, the mathematical model in the estimation of MED basing on the a* for the UVB irradiated skin is constructed in this study. In the future, a more precise treatment procedure of UVB irradiation, as well as a more treatment efficacy and a less treatment risk may be expected and provided.

EI, COR and a* increase with higher UVB irradiation. On the contrary, MI, L* and b* decrease. Discrepancy: TEWL, COR, SC, DP, LDI. 28 Table 3.4 Repeated-measurement ANOVA models. The highest F- value suggests the best discriminatory ability.

The pairwise comparison (t-test) is positive for 100mj/cm2 and 200mj/cm2 UVB irradiated doses in MI, EI, L, A, B, and VS.
