“…They are an expression of a compound of follicular structures and are seen in advanced cases, both clinically and by trichoscopy. Tufted hairs can be seen also in acne keloidalis, LPP and central centrifugal alopecia; however, in these conditions the tufts consist only of 2-3 hairs [25,26]. …”

Trichoscopy is the term coined for the dermoscopic imaging of scalp and hair. This diagnostic technique, simple and noninvasive, can be used as a handy bedside tool for the diagnosis and follow-up of hair and scalp disorders. It allows the recognition of morphologic structures not visible by the naked eye and provides the clinician with a range of dermoscopic findings necessary for differential diagnosis. Trichoscopy observation can be broadly grouped as interfollicular patterns and follicular patterns. Recently, a third mixed class, called the follicular plus interfollicular pattern, has been introduced. Some of these features are specific to a certain scalp disease, while others can be found in many hair disorders. Although studies suggest that the use of trichoscopy can improve clinical accuracy, further investigation is needed. This review provides update information on the trichoscopic features of the most common scalp disorders, striving to show a histopathological and clinical correlation.

ABSTRACT. Disorders of the scalp often result in severe cosmetic interference with quality of life, creating the need for optimal medical surveillance. We tested the latest generation of ultrasound machines in patients with scalp pathology and prepared a cross-sectional library encompassing a wide assortment of conditions. Normative data on the sonographic anatomy of scalp and human hair, and important methodological considerations, are also included. To improve the medical approach to diseases of the scalp, we evaluated colour Doppler ultrasound, a technique already applied to the study of localised lesions of the skin [2]. We screened 12 461 ultrasound examinations performed over the past 8 years at a national skin sonography referral centre, and selected 221 patients (168 male, 53 female) with scalp lesions. Sonograms were also performed on 33 healthy volunteers (31 male, 2 female). We then prepared a pictorial presentation highlighting sonographic characteristics of scalp skin, scalp hair and eyelashes, and archetypal scalp pathology

“…Folliculitis is often caused by Staphylococcus aureus and may also be caused by viruses, fungi. Follicles are densest on your scalp and they occur everywhere on your body except your palms, soles, lips and mucous membranes and the treatments receive for folliculitis depend on the type and severity of your condition (Otberg et al, 2008 andSillani et al, 2010).…”
