This source outlines the crucial steps and techniques for conducting scalp biopsies to diagnose cicatricial and non-cicatricial alopecias, emphasizing the importance of proper biopsy site selection, technique, and specimen processing to accurately interpret histopathology and understand related hair follicle disorders.

This study introduces the "HoVert" technique, which generates both vertical and horizontal sections from a single biopsy to effectively differentiate lichen planopilaris from discoid lupus erythematosus in alopecia cases.

This study found that contrast enhanced phototrichogram (CE-PTG) significantly improved detection of various hair types and growth stages in androgenetic alopecia compared to standard PTG and was comparable to biopsy analysis.

This article reviews advances in the histologic evaluation of alopecia and hair-related disorders, without presenting new clinical results.

The document suggests simplifying alopecia diagnosis and improving techniques for better accuracy.
