Compréhension et utilisation de l'indice universel de rayonnement solaire (« indice ultraviolet ») par les dermatologues français métropolitains

The results of our study show that the UVI is poorly known and not very widely used among dermatologists in France. This index, readily understood by anyone, could be incorporated by dermatologists in their prevention messages concerning solar radiation and it could be used throughout the year, particularly in target populations such as schoolchildren and children taking part in outdoor sports.
