LIGHT SOURCE AND FIBER OPTIC BRUSH FOR LIGHT DELIVERY

摘要

A phototherapy apparatus is disclosed including, a handpiece including a body member and a grip; a plurality of elongated light transmitting elements, each of the elements extending between a proximal end enclosed within the body member and a distal end located outside of and distal to the body member; an ultraviolet light source; a light collection element; and one or more optical coupling elements. The one or more optical coupling elements are configured to direct at least a portion of the collected light to the proximal ends of the light transmitting elements to couple at least portion of the collected light into the light transmitting elements. The light coupled into each of the light transmitting elements is transmitted along the element and emitted from the distal end.
