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 study found that trichoscopy is a useful tool in differentiating between alopecia areta and trichotillomania on the eyebrows based on distinct hair and follicle features.

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 article reviews the complexities and challenges in hair transplant procedures, emphasizing the role of micro-inflammation and the usefulness of trichoscopy for detecting complications, and reports no new clinical results.

This report highlights that trichoscopy is a useful, non-invasive tool for diagnosing tinea capitis in children, particularly in areas where lab facilities are limited.

This study introduced a non-invasive, three-step diagnostic algorithm for alopecia that combines clinical and trichoscopic features to accurately identify alopecia subtypes, potentially reducing reliance on invasive histopathology.

This study suggests that while low-cost videomicroscopes can correctly identify hair shaft alterations, they may be unreliable for detailed follicular and perifollicular trichoscopic examination compared to standard videodermatoscopes.

This review covers trichoscopy's role in diagnosing scalp disorders, emphasizing its potential to improve clinical accuracy, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that trichoscopy is a valuable diagnostic tool for identifying hair loss patterns in women and can help avoid scalp biopsies in unclear cases.

Advanced imaging techniques are crucial for accurately diagnosing Monilethrix, a rare hair disorder.

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

This systematic review reports that trichoscopy is highly accurate for diagnosing scalp disorders, suggesting it as a valuable alternative to biopsies and supporting recommendations for its integration into routine dermatology practice.

This study found that the TrichoScan Professional V3.0.8.76 shows high reproducibility in measuring hair count and density but may not be effective for distinguishing hair growth phases in women with androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, the authors evaluated 200 Egyptian children with focal non-cicatricial alopecia, finding that alopecia areata (42%) and tinea capitis (40.5%) were the most prevalent causes. Trichoscopy identified unique features for each condition, enhancing diagnosis and management.

This study found that trichoscopic features like exclamation mark hairs and angulated hairs were more indicative of alopecia areata in an Asian population, while features like broken hairs of different lengths and flame hairs were more common in trichotillomania.

In this study, pediatric hair and scalp disorders were effectively diagnosed using trichoscopic and light microscopic examinations, demonstrating high agreement with clinical diagnoses and emphasizing their utility as reliable, non-invasive diagnostic tools in a hospital-based setting.

This case analysis found that trichoscopy is a valuable tool for diagnosing and monitoring treatment progress in tinea capitis by distinguishing between Microsporum and Trichophyton etiologies.

This report on two Indian male siblings with monilethrix highlights trichoscopy's role in diagnosing this condition, which can be complicated by early-onset androgenetic alopecia.

This report highlights a case where dermoscopic observation of corkscrew hairs in a young woman led to the diagnosis of trichotillomania, emphasizing its role in distinguishing this psychiatric disorder from other forms of non-scarring alopecia and highlighting the importance of timely intervention.

This article reviews monilethrix, a rare genetic hair disorder causing brittle hair and alopecia, and emphasizes the need for clinical diagnosis and characteristic tricoscopic findings.

Trichoscopy helped diagnose a teenage girl's hair loss as monilethrix.

TrichoScan effectively measures hair growth improvements in people using minoxidil.

This study developed an automated image analysis framework for diagnosing hair disorders using trichoscopic images, reporting a Random Forest classifier as having an 86.67% accuracy in distinguishing between different scalp pathologies based on quantitative image features.

This case report describes a 4-year-old boy with Netherton syndrome, where trichoscopy importantly aided diagnosis and is recommended for all children with erythroderma.

This study found that individuals with protein-calorie malnutrition, especially those with kwashiorkor, required significantly less force to pluck hair compared to well-nourished patients.

This study found that trichoscopy positively correlates with disease severity in both male and female patients with androgenetic alopecia, suggesting its usefulness in early diagnosis and assessment.

UV-enhanced trichoscopy helps diagnose hair shaft disorders like pili annulati.

This study observed that dermoscopy is a valuable tool for hair transplant surgeons to evaluate and improve the aesthetic outcomes and address technical errors in transplant procedures.

This study observed that trichoscopic patterns, such as yellow dots and honey comb patterns, correlate with the severity of androgenetic alopecia in Indian patients, highlighting trichoscopy's diagnostic and prognostic value.

This study suggests that hormonal disturbances play a role in female pattern hair loss and that trichoscopy may be a useful tool for diagnosis and differentiation from other conditions.
