Abstract: An irradiation device for irradiating of body parts of a patient is provided, with a carrier system which provides a basic framework of the irradiation device with at least one light head with a light source for the irradiation, and a control element for operating the irradiation device. The irradiation device moreover includes a separate control module that is connected with the carrier system with at least one control for controlling the at least one light head. Innovative assembly and connection arrangements aid rapid and secure positioning.

Abstract: A wide-dispersion indirect lamp assembly with an elongated lamp housing (14), symmetric to a central, vertical plane (26), and which prevents at least most of the light from escaping downward. The assembly includes two fluorescent tubes (28); and a reflector (30) above each of the tubes. Each reflector, seen in vertical cross section, slants upward and away from a point (32) on the upper half of the circumference of the fluorescent tube. The point (32) is preferably shifted away from the apex line (34) of the circumference of the fluorescent tube toward the central plane (26) of the lamp housing (14).
