But unfortunately here in Pakistan it is not available. But I found about it at vitiligoguide.com/vitiligo/ it is not only useful for diagnose of vitiligo but to assess the earlier improvements against an treatment or medicine for vitiligo. Because when pigmentation increases the color of reflected light from the affected area also increase.

It appears to me to be T. Versicolor on the face, scalp, neck and chest. Possibly on the arms and torso. Does poikiloderma have white plaque. Some mild to moderate poikiloderma is present on the neck, mixed with what appears to me to be T. versicolor. It does not glow blue and does not appear to be vitiligo.

Except when, in medical school, a pathologist was demonstrating it and shined it on the pants of some of the guys, saying it also illuminates semen. I always thought the woods lamp was very cool.
