    non-invasive technique to examine hair and scalp disorders

    Trichoscopy, also known as scalp dermoscopy or hair dermoscopy, is a non-invasive diagnostic technique used to examine the hair and scalp at high magnification. By using a dermatoscope, healthcare professionals can identify patterns and structures that are not visible to the naked eye, aiding in the diagnosis of various hair and scalp disorders such as alopecia, fungal infections, and other dermatological conditions.
