The findings highlight the importance of dermoscopy in distinguishing RIA from other alopecic disorders in children.
September 2024 in “Acta Medica Philippina” This case report describes radiation-induced alopecia in a patient following a fluoroscopy-guided procedure, with complete hair regrowth after six months of topical minoxidil treatment.
December 2021 in “Journal of The American Academy of Dermatology” This article discusses post-COVID-19 hair loss, highlighting potential misdiagnoses between different types and the expanded role of dermatologists; no new clinical findings are reported.
