This study identified specific reflectance confocal microscopy features that help differentiate scarring from non-scarring alopecia, providing a non-invasive diagnostic tool.

The authors concluded that trichoscopy is a valuable noninvasive tool for diagnosing and monitoring nonscarring alopecia, aiding in the identification of new hair signs in difficult cases.

This study used confocal Raman microscopy to confirm optical similarity between human and porcine hair follicles, supporting its use in assessing trans-follicular drug delivery.

Trichoscopy is a helpful and quick method to identify different types of hair loss in women.

This study found that ultraviolet-induced fluorescence dermoscopy enhanced the identification of follicular openings in alopecia areata, potentially aiding in the assessment of disease severity and treatment strategies.

This review discusses the use of trichoscopy in diagnosing and managing pediatric hair and scalp disorders and reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that serial vertical sectioning of scalp biopsies significantly increases the histological diagnostic yield for alopecias.

This study found that miniaturization of hair is present in some women with androgenetic alopecia, but diagnosis may also be based on differences in hair shaft diameter between scalp regions.

Corkscrew hair may be a new sign for quickly diagnosing scalp fungus in black children.

This mini-review summarizes the Trichoscan as a sensitive tool for measuring hair growth parameters, demonstrating its effectiveness in detecting treatment response in androgenetic alopecia but noting some practical limitations.

This study found that dermoscopy is effective for distinguishing Tinea Capitis from Alopecia Areata by identifying unique trichoscopic features specific to each condition.

This study used a novel HPLC-radiomatic flow scintillation system to measure 5α-reductase activity in dermal papillae from miniaturized hair follicles of the human occipital scalp, revealing significant variability in enzyme activity across samples.

This study found that measuring hair thickness with a phototrichogram provided significantly thicker readings than using a micrometer caliper, suggesting that the phototrichogram may be more clinically useful for evaluating hair in patients undergoing hair transplantation.

This study reported that a new extraction technique using cautery and forceps is a simple, effective treatment and diagnostic procedure for eruptive vellus hair cysts, with no recurrence after 4 months.

The study found that pili bifurcati causes hair to intermittently split into two branches, each with its own outer layer.

In this study, the researchers found that a manual micrometer caliper is a reliable tool for planning hair transplant surgery and accurately measures the short axis of the hair shaft.

This study observed that specific dermoscopic features, such as altered pigmentary network and yeast invasion of hair follicles, along with certain histopathological features, assist in diagnosing pityriasis versicolor.

Dermatoscopy helps diagnose hair and scalp disorders in people with Afro-textured hair, but more research is needed for better understanding and treatment.

This study reported that different types of alopecia have distinctive dermoscopic patterns, which aids in their diagnosis.

This study found that a new 3D image analysis method from SEM images enables quick and accurate measurement of cuticle scale heights in hair fibers.

This review summarizes the dermoscopic structures associated with infectious and inflammatory skin conditions and hair disorders in children but reports no new clinical results.

This manuscript describes a proposed ‘trichoscopy-assisted hair pull test’ that enhances the diagnosis of hair loss conditions by allowing immediate examination of proximal hair shafts and roots in patients with a positive hair pull test.

This commentary discusses the use of microscopes in hair restoration surgery but provides no specific results or new insights.

This study evaluates if using a dissecting stereomicroscope affects the rate of hair follicle transection during graft dissection, but reports no new conclusive results.

In this case report, an elderly woman was diagnosed with tinea capitis and eyebrow involvement, which was initially misdiagnosed as alopecia areata, illustrating the importance of trichoscopy in correctly identifying this infection even in uncommon sites like the eyebrow.

Comma hairs are a new sign for identifying scalp fungal infections.

This article discusses the use of trichoscopy as a helpful tool for early diagnosis and monitoring of dissecting cellulitis, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study reported that trichoscopy can identify specific hair shaft abnormalities linked to increased serological activity, highlighting its use as a valuable non-invasive diagnostic tool in pediatric dermatology for neonates with ECS.
