Blue light radiometer

Definition

An instrument designed to measure the radiant flux (radiant power) in the spectral range of 400 to 500 nm (i.e., blue) during bilirubinemia treatment for newborns and infants. It typically includes a pre-filter intended to remove wavelengths of light not in the 400-500 nm range (e.g., infrared light); a primary detector consisting of a temperature-stabilized, solid-state [e.g., selenium (Se) or indium-gallium-arsenide] device used to detect radiation; electronic circuits including an amplifier and a electric meter; a power source (e.g., a battery); and a display showing the results either in analogue or digital format.
