Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue aims to provide an overview of the most used techniques in dermatologic imaging to illustrate the specific technical properties and their peculiar advantages to be found not only in the field of non-invasive diagnostics, but also in the follow-up and treatment monitoring. This issue aims to cover the most employed tools ranging from dermoscopy, reflectance confocal microscopy, and optical coherence tomography to the most recently introduced tools, such as skin ultrasound, like line-field confocal optical coherence tomography, high-resolution dermoscopy, ultra high-resolution ultrasound, and fluorescence dermoscopy. For each technique, all the clinical conditions in which a useful application is found will be described.

Prof. Dr. Linda Tognetti
Guest Editor
