Introduction

Hair loss or thinning hair is a common complaint in clinical dermatology. However, patients seeking advice for hair loss are not necessarily bald and the effects of treatment attempts can be hard to measure. Consequently, there is a need for a sensitive tool to monitor hair loss and treatment response. Such a method must be able to analyze the biological parameters of hair growth, such as hair density (n/cm2), hair diameter (µm), hair growth rate (mm/day), or anagen/telogen ratio. The different versions of TrichoScan® offer such tools and in the following pages you will learn more about the sensitivity, precision, and usefulness of TrichoScan®.
