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 article reviews the use of dermatoscopy and videodermatoscopy in therapeutic follow-up, noting that videodermatoscopy is a reliable tool despite potential cost issues with high magnifications.

Dermatoscopy and videodermatoscopy are useful for diagnosing and monitoring various skin, hair, and nail conditions.

This article discusses the advantages and different techniques of dermoscopy for skin lesion visualization and reviewing no new clinical results; it emphasizes the integration of polarized light and the importance of training.

This study suggests that low-cost videomicroscopes may not be reliable for diagnosing hair and scalp disorders due to limitations in color quality and resolution.

Dermoscopy is useful for many health professionals, not just dermatologists, in improving skin condition diagnoses and reducing unnecessary biopsies.

This review outlines how dermoscopy enhances diagnostic accuracy by up to 30% compared to unaided visual inspection and explores its potential as a research tool without presenting new research findings.

This study suggests that using a dermoscope, a handheld microscope, can effectively help distinguish between Pityrosporum folliculitis and Acne vulgaris by revealing unique lesion characteristics that are not visible to the naked eye, offering a practical diagnostic alternative when KOH examinations are unavailable.

This article reviews recent trends and developments in dermoscopy, highlighting its expanding use beyond pigmented lesions, and reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the expanding applications of dermoscopy in dermatological diagnosis beyond its initial use for detecting dysplastic nevi and reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that low-cost videomicroscopes may inaccurately assess certain features in hair and scalp disorders compared to standard videodermatoscopy, limiting their reliability for trichoscopy.

The study suggests low-cost videomicroscopes may identify some hair shaft features but are unreliable for comprehensive scalp trichoscopy compared to standard devices, due to color and resolution limitations.

Dermoscopy greatly improves melanoma diagnosis and reduces unneeded surgeries.

This study suggests that using UVFD to examine non-pigmented facial lesions can potentially enhance diagnostic accuracy and reduce unnecessary biopsies.

This article examines the emerging role of dermoscopy in skin cancer diagnosis and reports no new clinical findings; the authors highlight its potential to enhance dermatological practice.

This Viewpoint discusses the utility of dermoscope in routine practice and how familiarity with dynamic vs static trichoscopy may address its limitations, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study concluded that a polarized-light handheld dermatoscope attached to a digital camera is a practical and useful tool for diagnosing different types of alopecia.

This article discusses how dermoscopy, particularly "entomodermoscopy," aids in diagnosing skin infestations and infectious dermatoses, enhancing clinical evaluations, and monitoring treatment efficacy for conditions like scabies, pediculosis, myiasis, and tungiasis.

In this study conducted at the Vitebsk Regional Clinical Center, digital video microscopy without biopsy effectively identified diagnostic criteria for non-scarring alopecia in 315 patients, allowing for the prescription of appropriate treatments for alopecia areata and androgenetic alopecia.

In this observational retrospective study, UVF-dermoscopy was found to be more effective than polarized dermoscopy in identifying follicular features and distinguishing between scarring and nonscarring alopecias, particularly in individuals with lighter skin tones.

This review discusses the role of dermoscopy in diagnosing hair and scalp disorders, noting its ability to aid in differential diagnosis without the need for biopsies; it reports no new clinical results.

This case report highlighted the use of dermoscopy not only for diagnosing skin disorders but also as an educational tool to inform patients about the harmful effects of unqualified medical advice, particularly highlighting the quackery issue in dermatology.

This review summarizes the dermoscopic structures associated with infectious and inflammatory skin conditions and hair disorders in children but reports no new clinical results.

This article describes petechiae on the fingertips as a presenting symptom of dermatitis herpetiformis but reports no new clinical results.

This systematic review provides an in-depth evaluation of non-invasive imaging and biophysical methods for diagnosing and monitoring vitiligo, emphasizing the need for studies with larger sample sizes to verify their use in clinical practice and research.

This study found that dermatologists in São Paulo reported increased confidence in teledermatology over one year, citing its utility for triage and diagnosis, particularly for superficial infections and pigmentary disorders.

This article highlights the various dermoscopic signs described in dermatology but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that the implementation of the SAVe teledermatology model increased access to dermatologic care during COVID-19, reducing referral wait times significantly compared to in-person visits.
