FAQs
Q：What is a wood's lamp used for?
A：Wood's lamp is a detection fixture that emits long wave ultraviolet light (UVA, peak wavelength of approximately 365nm) through a filter containing nickel oxide. It mainly utilizes the principle of fluorescence reaction in dark environments and has a wide range of applications in dermatology, pet medicine, forensic identification, and other fields. It can be used to assist in the diagnosis of various skin diseases and is often used by pet doctors or owners for preliminary screening of pet skin problems.
Q：What does a fungal infection look like under a woods lamp?
A：The typical appearance of fungal infections under the Wood Lamp is mainly bright green (tinea capitis/tinea cat) or brownish yellow (tinea versicolor), but not all fungi emit light, and it is mainly used as a rapid screening tool.
Q：What is the wood's lamp test for dogs?
A：Lamp must be held over the skin lesions for at least 5 min because infected hairs may need to be exposed to the lamp for several minutes before they start to fluoresce. Positive hairs will glow an apple-green color.
Q：What color is vitiligo under Wood's lamp?
A：Under the Wood lamp, the skin lesions of vitiligo have very typical characteristics, mainly divided into two situations:
1. Bright blue and white (or porcelain white):
This is the most typical manifestation of vitiligo. Due to the lack of melanin in the skin lesion area, collagen fluorescence in the dermis will appear under the UV irradiation of the Wood lamp, presenting a very bright bright blue white fluorescence, similar to the color of white paper or chalk.
2. Tri color/Five color expression (progress period):
If vitiligo is in the active stage, sometimes areas with incomplete pigment loss can be seen under the light, appearing gray white in contrast to the completely lost bright blue white areas, which helps to determine whether the condition is progressing.

The typical appearance of fungal infections under the Wood Lamp is mainly bright green (tinea capitis/tinea cat) or brownish yellow (tinea versicolor), but not all fungi emit light, and it is mainly used as a rapid screening tool.
Q：What does a wood's lamp detect?
