research A Comparison of Vertical Versus Transverse Sections in the Evaluation of Alopecia Biopsy Specimens
Using both vertical and transverse sections gives a better diagnosis of alopecia than using one method alone.
research Vertical vs. Transverse Sections in Alopecia Biopsy Diagnosis
Both vertical and transverse sections are useful for diagnosing alopecia, but using both methods together is best.
research Vertical vs. Transverse Sections of Scalp Biopsy Specimens: A Pilot Study on the Comparison of the Diagnostic Value of Two Techniques in Alopecia
Transverse scalp sections are better for diagnosing non-scarring hair loss, while vertical sections are better for a specific scarring hair loss called lichen planopilaris.
research The Histopathology of Alopecia Areata in Vertical and Horizontal Sections
Horizontal scalp biopsy sections are better for diagnosing alopecia areata, showing fewer hair follicles and more miniaturized hairs.
research A Comparison of Vertical Versus Transverse Sections for the Histopathologic Diagnosis of Alopecias
Transverse sections are better for non-scarring hair loss, vertical sections are better for lichen planopilaris, and either method works for other scarring hair loss types.
research Horizontal and Vertical Sections of Scalp Biopsy Specimens from Dermatomyositis Patients with Scalp Involvement
Scalp biopsies from dermatomyositis patients show chronic hair loss without scarring, with mucin and blood vessel changes being very common.
research Transverse Sections for Diagnosis of Alopecia?
Vertical sections are better than horizontal sections for diagnosing alopecia.
research Diagnostic and Predictive Value of Horizontal Sections of Scalp Biopsy Specimens in Male Pattern Androgenetic Alopecia
Horizontal scalp biopsy sections effectively diagnose and predict MPAA, with follicular density and inflammation impacting hair regrowth.
research Histopathologic Profile of Alopecia Areata in Indian Patients
The study found that the cause of alopecia areata can be identified through tissue analysis, and vertical sections are enough for diagnosis.
research Diagnostic Accuracy Measures for Vertical and Transverse Scalp Biopsies in Cicatricial and Non-Cicatricial Alopecias
Transverse scalp biopsies are more accurate for diagnosing non-cicatricial alopecia, but examining both types is best for accuracy.
research A Study of Serial Vertical Sectioning of Scalp Biopsies to Increase the Histological Diagnostic Yield in Alopecias
Cutting scalp biopsies in consecutive slices improves diagnosis of hair loss conditions.
research Hair Diameter Variation in Different Vertical Regions of the Occipital Safe Donor Area
Hair thickness decreases from the upper to lower areas of the back of the head, affecting hair transplant results.
research The Transverse Anatomy of Androgenic Alopecia
The study found that horizontal sections of scalp biopsies are better for analyzing hair loss, showing fewer hairs and more fine hairs in balding areas.
research Follicular Swiss Cheese Pattern: Another Histopathologic Clue to Alopecia Areata
Dilated follicular infundibula and increased catagen/telogen follicles are key indicators for diagnosing alopecia areata.
research Primary Scalp Alopecia: New Histopathological Tools, New Concepts, and a Practical Guide to Diagnosis
The document concludes that new methods improve the accuracy of diagnosing scalp alopecia and challenges the old way of classifying it.
research Dermatopathology of Common Hair Problems
Examining scalp biopsies in different ways helps better diagnose hair loss types.
research Non-Scarring Alopecias in Iranian Patients: A Histopathological Study With Hair Counts
The most effective way to diagnose non-scarring hair loss is by transverse sectioning, and some cases, particularly in males with inflammation around hair follicles, might be curable.
research Scalp Biopsy and Diagnosis of Common Hair Loss Problems
Scalp biopsy helps tell apart permanent and temporary hair loss types and guides treatment.
research Histology of the Human Hair Follicle
Understanding hair follicle structure is key for treating hair disorders and could help develop new treatments.
research A Detective Look at Hair Biopsies from African-American Patients
Recognizing specific features of African-American hair can help diagnose hair loss conditions.
research Temporal Triangular Alopecia
Temporal triangular alopecia is a lifelong condition with hairless patches on the side of the head that may be present from birth.
research Pathologic Diagnosis of Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia on Horizontal Sections
Horizontal sections of scalp biopsies are good for diagnosing Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia and help customize treatment.
research A Comprehensive Approach to Hair Pathology of Horizontal Sections
A new method using visual aids to diagnose hair diseases was effective after brief training.
research Utility of Horizontal Sections of Scalp Biopsies in Differentiating Between Androgenetic Alopecia and Alopecia Areata
Scalp biopsies help tell apart androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata.
research Elastic Staining in Differentiating Between Follicular Streamers and Follicular Scars in Horizontal Scalp Biopsy Sections
EVG staining helps tell apart follicular scars from follicular streamers, aiding in diagnosing different types of hair loss.
research A Study of the Histopathological Features of Alopecias on Transverse Sections of Scalp Biopsies
Transverse scalp biopsy sections help diagnose different alopecias by showing hair follicle details and inflammation patterns.
research The HoVert Technique: A Novel Method for the Sectioning of Alopecia Biopsies
The HoVert technique is a simple, cost-effective new method that improves alopecia diagnosis by allowing detailed analysis from a single biopsy.
research Hair Anatomy for the Clinician
Understanding hair follicle anatomy helps diagnose hair disorders.
research Correlation Between In Vivo Reflectance Confocal Microscopy and Horizontal Histopathology in Skin Cancer: A Review
