A Retrospective Comparison Between Home and in‐Office <scp>NB</scp>‐<scp>UVB</scp> Efficacy for Patients With Mycosis Fungoides
The effectiveness of home NB-UVB treatment is comparable, if not superior, to in-office treatment, likely attributed to treatment ease in access and compliance. Medicare and other health insurance companies should expand coverage to include home-based phototherapy for patients with MF, a potentially fatal cancer with a relative paucity of effective alternate therapies.
