✨ Advancements in Alopecia Diagnosis! ✨ While scalp biopsies and trichoscopy are commonly used for diagnosing alopecia, trichoscopy alone may not always provide enough detail. Fortunately, new non-invasive diagnostic techniques are here to enhance clinical assessments! 🧪 HFU & UHFU – High & Ultra-High Frequency Ultrasound
🔍 RCM – Reflectance Confocal Microscopy
📡 OCT – Optical Coherence Tomography These methods visualize structures beneath the scalp and monitor hair shafts, offering deeper insights into both scarring and non-scarring alopecia. Our review explores how these techniques can refine diagnosis, monitoring, and understanding of alopecia's pathophysiology. 📖 Stay tuned for cutting-edge insights! #Alopecia #HairLoss #Dermatology #Trichology #NonInvasiveTech #HairHealth #dermatologicultrasound #ultrasound @xworts @sonoskin @Desaze @ActasDS More info at:  Ortiz-Lazo E, Velasco-Tamariz V, Saceda-Corraló D, Wortsman X.
