Relative humidity is the percentage or ratio of the amount of water vapor in a volume of air at a given temperature and the amount that it can hold at that given temperature. An amount of water vapor in warm air will result to a lower relative humidity than in cool air.ummary: 1.Humidity is the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere while relative humidity is one type of humidity. 2.Humidity is the water content of the mixture of water vapor and other elements found in the air while relative humidity is the percentage of water vapor in the air at a given temperature.
Actinic keratosis (AK) is a UV lightâinduced lesion of the skin that may progress to invasive squamous cell carcinoma. It is by far the most common lesion with malignant potential to arise on the skin. See the image below.
If an AK is suspected to be an early cancer, the physician may take tissue for biopsy by shaving off a portion of the AK with a scalpel or scraping the lesion with a curette (an instrument with a sharp ring-shaped tip). The curette may also be used to scrape off the base of the lesion.
