Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, there have been significant advancements in non-invasive methods for the diagnosis of dermatological diseases. Non-invasive diagnosis has become an essential tool in modern dermatology. These techniques, such as dermatoscopy, confocal microscopy, and optical coherence tomography, provide high-resolution images of skin lesions, enabling physicians to visualize and analyze skin conditions with unprecedented precision. Advances in these techniques have allowed us to correlate the observed changes with the pathology, leading to more accurate diagnoses.
This Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the recent advancements in non-invasive skin imaging techniques, discuss their current use in clinical practice, and shed light on the exciting future prospects in this field.
