Reflectance confocal microscopy can tell apart white dots on the scalp as either sweat gland ducts or hair follicle openings.

This case series reports the specific dermoscopic features observed in two patients with syphilitic alopecia, highlighting alopecic patches with empty hair follicles and other distinguishing characteristics that may aid in differentiating it from other hair disorders.

In this retrospective study, researchers from the University of Bologna observed that trichoscopy can aid in diagnosing allergic scalp contact dermatitis, with key findings including common trichoscopic patterns of erythema, white scales, arborizing vessels, and simple red loops in 12 patients diagnosed with the condition.

This study explored using 3D models derived from reflectance confocal microscopy to better understand and differentiate melanoma on sun-damaged skin, suggesting enhanced diagnostic possibilities.

This review discusses the use of hair microscopy in diagnosing hair-related conditions, highlighting techniques and common applications, but presents no new experimental results.

This study reports that improvements to the EczemaNet pipeline, incorporating pixel-level segmentation and data augmentation, enhanced the reliability and interpretability of assessing atopic dermatitis severity from digital images.

This correspondence describes the dermoscopic features of an osteonevus of Nanta but does not report new clinical findings.

The authors observed that the patterned melanoderma on the hairless scalp of fair-skinned Caucasian men with androgenic alopecia resembled similar patterns seen on facial skin.

This study found that erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp is frequently misdiagnosed as squamous cell carcinoma, highlighting the need for careful differentiation to avoid unnecessary treatments.

This article describes current advancements and future possibilities in skin imaging technology, teledermatology, and AI in dermatology, without reporting new research results.

This article reviews a tabletop microscopy method for recording electromagnetic radiation from tissues, using hair follicles as a model, and presents no new clinical findings.

This study found that canine demodicosis diagnosis is complicated by the absence of typical lesions and the presence of atypical symptoms like itching and generalized erythema, challenging traditional diagnostic approaches.

This study found that ultraviolet-induced fluorescence trichoscopy can help differentiate between scarring and non-scarring alopecia and between psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis.

In this study, trichoscopy was found to be a valuable non-invasive tool for diagnosing scalp lesions, enhancing diagnostic accuracy and reducing the need for scalp biopsies by identifying specific trichoscopic features associated with conditions like psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis, and alopecia areata.

The authors concluded that dermoscopy is a useful tool in diagnosing different types of hair loss and scalp conditions.

This study suggests that corkscrew hair could serve as a new diagnostic marker for tinea capitis and that dermoscopy might help diagnose atypical cases swiftly.

This review outlines the key principles and clinical applications of multimodal non-invasive skin imaging technologies, emphasizing their combined strengths in enhancing diagnosis and treatment assessment in dermatology.

This study found that line-field confocal optical coherence tomography effectively visualized microscopic alterations in alopecia areata, suggesting its potential use in diagnosis and monitoring.

Reflectance confocal microscopy is a useful, non-invasive tool for diagnosing some skin diseases, with potential for future improvements.

In this study, trichoscopy was highlighted as a valuable diagnostic tool for traction alopecia, particularly in black women, revealing common signs like vellus hair and hair casts, although it requires a suggestive clinical history for effective use.

This study concluded that among the three diagnostic techniques for detecting Demodex mites in dogs, the scraping technique provided the best diagnostic value.

This review highlights that two-photon excitation microscopy is a valuable tool for visualizing live skin structures and immune responses at high resolution, though its clinical use is hindered by safety and cost issues.

This study observed that trichoscopy of long-lasting lesions in a chronic stage revealed specific features such as absence of follicular openings, cicatricial patches, and thick arborizing vessels.

In this literature review, researchers found that dermoscopic presentations of pediatric skin conditions often differ between children with skin of color and Caucasian children, with variations influenced by racial backgrounds.
