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.

In this study on Iranian patients with non-scarring alopecia, researchers found that androgenetic alopecia was the most common subtype, with perifollicular inflammation observed more in males. They reported that transverse sectioning is generally sufficient for diagnosis, but combining with vertical sectioning provides more comprehensive information.

This article discusses the lack of information on central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia's manifestations in Black men and reports no new clinical findings; the authors emphasize the need for further study in this population.

This study observed that transverse sectioning of scalp biopsies may aid in diagnosing different types of alopecia by revealing distinct histopathological features like follicle miniaturization and specific inflammatory patterns.
