Treatment of onychomycosis using radiation of excimer laser

Original language description

It is known that UV-C radiation kills fungus by radiating their DNA. We wanted to verify, if we could use radiation produced by excimer laser as an alternative method for the treatment of onychomycosis ? nail fungus. Medical procedure like this should meet certain conditions such as perfectly and reliably destroying the fungi and to make no harm to the patient (in this case overheating of the under-nail tissue). The main part of the first stage of this work was to determine the coefficients for transmission, reflection and absorption of nails to determine the quantity of energy going through and absorbed by the nail ? that means quantity of energy which could harm the healthy tissue. In the following stage we focused on the irradiation of the fungi.
