The effective radiant power of a metal halide lamp for phototherapy of neonatal jaundice was measured in an incubator. This new lamp is characterised by an extremely heterogeneous field of irradiance with a high intensity in the centre and a marked decrease towards the sides. The mean radiant intensity in a central area (20 X 40 cm) of the incubator can be compared with the values achieved with standard fluorescent lamps in an incubator lined with white cloth. As the field of irradiance is more homogeneous in the latter case, advances in therapy are not to be expected from the use of metal halide lamps in their present form.
在一个培养箱中测量了用于新生儿黄疸光疗的金属卤化物灯的有效辐射功率。这种新灯的特点是辐照场极不均匀，中心强度高，向边缘明显降低。可以将培养箱中心区域（20×40厘米）的平均辐射强度与在衬有白布的培养箱中使用标准荧光灯所获得的值进行比较。由于在后一种情况下辐照场更均匀，因此目前形式的金属卤化物灯在治疗方面预计不会有进展。
