picture

picture: We will perform a non-invasive assessment of the scalp with a dermoscope by taking two standardized pictures on the frontal area and the occipital area in order to a blinded analysis of trichoscopic patterns

Study summary

* Few data are available on scalp involvement in systemic scleroderma.
* Few data are available on the association between scalp abnormalities and features of systemic scleroderma
* Trichoscopy is a simple, reproducible, noninvasive examination that is part of the examination of hairy areas in routine dermatologic practice
* There is a lack of simple, noninvasive examinations to evaluate patients with systemic scleroderma

The objective will be to evaluate the contribution of trichoscopy in the evaluation of patients with systemic scleroderma
